Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Protein processing in the endoplasmic reticulum is highlighted in response to heat stress in Platysternon megacephalum. Under heat stress, the up‐regulation of genes such as CHOP in protein processing in the endoplasmic reticulum pathway, along with the suppression of energy and lipid metabolism and the up‐regulation of JARID2 expression, leads to ...

Functional Role of γ-Crystallin N in the Auditory Hindbrain. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 γ-crystallins are major components of the vertebrate lens but show expression in other tissues as well. Their extralenticular functions remain so far unclear.

Transcriptional profiling of single fiber cells in a transgenic paradigm of an inherited childhood cataract reveals absence of molecular heterogeneity. [PDF]
, 2019 Our recent single-cell transcriptomic analysis has demonstrated that heterogeneous transcriptional activity attends molecular transition from the nascent to terminally differentiated fiber cells in the developing mouse lens.

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.Abstract Purpose To compare the inflammatory response in the eye after trabeculectomy to after phacoemulsification, focusing on anterior chamber flare (AC flare) and central macular thickness (CMT). Methods Data from 436 participants in two randomized controlled trials were analysed.

Crystallins are regulated biomarkers for monitoring topical therapy of glaucomatous optic neuropathy. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Optic nerve atrophy caused by abnormal intraocular pressure (IOP) remains the most common cause of irreversible loss of vision worldwide. The aim of this study was to determine whether topically applied IOP-lowering eye drugs affect retinal ganglion ...

Tau-crystallin/alpha-enolase: one gene encodes both an enzyme and a lens structural protein. [PDF]
, 1988 tau-Crystallin has been a major component of the cellular lenses of species throughout vertebrate evolution, from lamprey to birds. Immunofluorescence analysis of the embryonic turtle lens, using antiserum to lamprey tau-crystallin showed that the ...

Potential of human γD-crystallin for hair damage repair : insights into the mechanical properties and biocompatibility [PDF]
, 2013 The objective of this work was to develop a new strategy to physically ‘repair’ chemically damaged hair. Hence the human eye γD-crystallin, a protein from the superfamily characterized structurally by the Greek key motif, was studied.

Radiopaque Crystalline, Non-Crystalline and Nanostructured Bioceramics
Materials, 2022 Radiopacity is sometimes an essential characteristic of biomaterials that can help clinicians perform follow-ups during pre- and post-interventional radiological imaging. Due to their chemical composition and structure, most bioceramics are inherently radiopaque but can still be doped/mixed with radiopacifiers to increase their visualization during or ...

In vitro interactions of histones and α-crystallin
Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2018 The aggregation of crystallins in lenses is associated with cataract formation. We previously reported that mutant crystallins are associated with an increased abundance of histones in knock-in and knockout mouse models.

Comparison of the Lens Protein Profiles of Three Species of Ozark Salamanders [PDF]
, 1979 The vertebrate lens has a high protein content (35%), 80-90% of which is composed of the soluble, lens-specific structural proteins, the crystallins. The lens protein profiles of urodelan species have been found to be qualitatively distinct.
