Melanopsin expression is an indicator of the well-being of melanopsin-expressing retinal ganglion cells but not of their viability
Light is an electromagnetic stimulus that in mammals is sensed by specialized neurons in the retina. The physiological response to light encompasses two fundamental and different functional outputs: image-forming and non-image forming. The image-forming response is classically known as vision, while the non-image forming responses include the circadian photo-entrainment and the pupillary reflex...
متن کاملChloride channel gene expression in the rabbit cornea.
PURPOSE The maintenance of stromal hydration by the corneal endothelium relies on active transendothelial anion transport, with bicarbonate and chloride the major anions carrying the current. However, the ion transport pathways that operate to maintain stromal hydration have yet to be fully elucidated. METHODS We used RT-PCR to identify the gene expression profile of members of the ClC family...
متن کاملPostnatal gene expression in the normal mouse cornea by SAGE.
PURPOSE To provide a detailed gene expression profile of the normal postnatal mouse cornea. METHODS Serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) was performed on postnatal day (PN)9 and adult mouse (6 week) total corneas. The expression of selected genes was analyzed by in situ hybridization. RESULTS A total of 64,272 PN9 and 62,206 adult tags were sequenced. Mouse corneal transcriptomes are c...
متن کاملExpression of Sp1 and KLF6 in the developing human cornea.
PURPOSE To examine the temporal and spatial expression of Sp1 and Krüppel-like factor 6 (KLF6) in the cornea in fetal and adult human eyes. METHODS Eyes from human fetus (F) of 7, 9, 10, 11, 13, and 27 weeks (w) of gestation, as well as corneas from 11 and 56-day (d)-old children and donors 2, 6, 16, 25, 40, 51, 69, and 83 years (y) of age were obtained. All specimens were fixed in 10% buffer...
متن کاملThe cornea in kwashiorkor
The resistance of the cornea to infection is lowered in Kwashiorkor. There is more morbidity of the cornea among children who have been malnourished. Thus among 1,000 well-nourished children examined, there were only 2 (0.2%) children with corneal opacity, whereas among 200 children who were being treated for Protein-Calorie Malnutrition 4 (2%) had corneal lesions. The Lowering of resistance of...
