ABSTRACT Age‐related cataract (ARC) is the most prevalent form of cataract. Oxidative stress‐induced apoptosis of lens epithelial cells (LECs) is a major pathogenic factor, but its underlying molecular mechanisms remain incompletely understood. This study investigated the roles of FGF9, ERK, and MMP9 in ARC and examined whether the FGF9/ERK/MMP9 ...

The Interstitial Fluid Compartment: Still Unrecognized or Biophysically Well Described?
ABSTRACT The proposal of a “new third bodily system for circulation of fluid” has been recently put forward. The present article sheds light on all available physiological knowledge concerning exactly this same space, defined as “interstitial compartment” as originally hypothesized by Ernest Starling about 130 years ago. We provide here a brief updated
