In wound repair vimentin mediates the transition of mesenchymal leader cells to a myofibroblast phenotype. [PDF]
Following injury, mesenchymal repair cells are activated to function as leader cells that modulate wound healing. These cells have the potential to differentiate to myofibroblasts, resulting in fibrosis and scarring.

Alpha B-crystallin protects retinal tissue during Staphylococcus aureus-induced endophthalmitis [PDF]
Bacterial infections of the eye highlight a dilemma that is central to all immune-privileged sites. On the one hand, immune privilege limits inflammation to prevent bystander destruction of normal tissue and loss of vision.

Protein kinase C modulates the activity of a cloned gamma-aminobutyric acid transporter expressed in Xenopus oocytes via regulated subcellular redistribution of the transporter [PDF]
We report that activators and inhibitors of protein kinase C (PKC) and protein phosphatases regulate the activity of a cloned rat brain gamma- aminobutyric acid (GABA) transporter (GAT1) expressed in Xenopus oocytes.
