“Super p53” Mice Display Retinal Astroglial Changes
Tumour-suppressor genes, such as the p53 gene, produce proteins that inhibit cell division under adverse conditions, as in the case of DNA damage, radiation, hypoxia, or oxidative stress (OS). The p53 gene can arrest proliferation and trigger death by apoptosis subsequent to several factors. In astrocytes, p53 promotes cell-cycle arrest and is involved in oxidative stress-mediated astrocyte cel...
متن کاملRetinal vasculature changes in Norrie disease mice.
PURPOSE To correlate morphologic changes in the retinal vasculature with degenerative changes in the neuronal retina of mice lacking 56 amino acids from the N-terminus of the Norrie disease (ND) gene product. METHODS Posterior eye segments of ND mice of different age groups were investigated by light and electron microscopy (EM) and scanning EM of vascular corrosion cast preparations. The res...
متن کاملFunctional changes in astroglial cells in epilepsy.
Epilepsy comprises a group of disorders characterized by the periodic occurrence of seizures, and pathologic specimens from patients with temporal lobe epilepsy demonstrate marked reactive gliosis. Since recent studies have implicated glial cells in novel physiological roles in the CNS, such as modulation of synaptic transmission, it is plausible that glial cells may have a functional role in t...
متن کاملUltra-wide FOV Retinal Display
Currently available screen and retinal head mounted displays have insufficient field of view to fully exploit many virtual and augmented reality applications. Screen based displays suffer from weight and size restrictions as the image sources, electronics, and viewing optics need to be head mounted. Retinal displays need only the scanning and optical delivery components to be head mounted, but ...
متن کاملRetinal compensatory changes after light damage in albino mice
PURPOSE To investigate the anatomic and functional changes triggered by light exposure in the albino mouse retina and compare them with those observed in the albino rat. METHODS BALB/c albino mice were exposed to 3,000 lx of white light during 24 h and their retinas analyzed from 1 to 180 days after light exposure (ALE). Left pupil mydriasis was induced with topical atropine. Retinal function...
