Quantifying Heterogeneity of Cell Death
Heterogeneity is a common property of biological signalling systems. In most cases, heterogeneity is described qualitatively, only for some classes of responses have qualitative measures been proposed. For cell death signalling, this paper is the first to propose a quantification of heterogeneity. The challenge hereby is the dual aspect of heterogeneity. First, only part of the cell population ...
متن کاملHeterologous corneal endothelial cell transplantation--human corneal endothelial cell transplantation in Lewis rats.
A heterologous corneal endothelial transplantation was attempted using human endothelial cells and a Lewis rat penetrating keratoplasty model. Cultured human endothelial cells were seeded to a Lewis rat cornea, which was denuded of its endothelium. When grafted into the syngeneic Lewis rat, the graft remained clear for at least five days, and then became opaque and edematous because of immune r...
متن کاملcorneal endothelial cell evaluation in donors with aluminum phosphide intoxication
purpose: to evaluate corneal endothelial cells of donors who died from aluminum phosphide intoxication. methods: endothelial cell count and quality of eight corneas from four donors with aluminum phosphide intoxication were evaluated by slit lamp biomicroscopy and specular microscopy at the eye bank of i.r. iran. confocal scan examination was carried out only in one of the recipients. results: ...
متن کاملpredictors of endothelial cell density of corneal grafts after dsaek
purpose: to evaluate endothelial cell density (ecd) and morphology of clear corneal grafts after descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (dsaek) and to determine the factors that influence graft ecd postoperatively. methods: seventy-seven eyes (38 right eyes) of 64 patients (34 female subjects) who underwent dsaek for fuchs’ endothelial dystrophy (n=38) or pseudophakic bullous ker...
متن کاملPredicative Factors for Corneal Endothelial Cell Migration.
PURPOSE To characterize the effects of Descemet's stripping, Rho-associated protein kinase inhibitor Y-27632, and donor age on endothelial migration in human corneas maintained in ex vivo culture. METHODS Twenty-eight cadaveric human corneas underwent ex vivo culture in either standard or Y-27632-supplemented culture medium for 14 days. The posterior surface of each cornea was manipulated to ...
