The authors obtained satisfactory results in reducing intraocular pressure by the combination of nonpenetrating trabeculectomy, sinusotomy, and trabeculotomy.
It was found that some ciliates, Stentor, Spirostomum and Blepharisma, which can contract rapidly like the stalks of Vorticellidae, have Ca2+-binding proteins that are very similar to spasmins, in the immunological sense. The presence of spasmins in other Protozoa and in some Metazoa was also investigated.
The retinal degeneration of WBN/Kob rats begins in the outer retina. The lack of SODs in the outer retina may contribute to retinal degeneration in the WBN/Kob rats.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
