Morphometric analyses of the visual pathways in macular degeneration [PDF]
, 2014 Introduction. Macular degeneration (MD) causes central visual field loss. When field defects occur in both eyes and overlap, parts of the visual pathways are no longer stimulated.

A model of toxic neuropathy in Drosophila reveals a role for MORN4 in promoting axonal degeneration [PDF]
, 2012 Axonal degeneration is a molecular self-destruction cascade initiated following traumatic, toxic, and metabolic insults. Its mechanism underlies a number of disorders including hereditary and diabetic neuropathies and the neurotoxic side effects of ...

Epigenetics and cell death: DNA hypermethylation in programmed retinal cell death. [PDF]
, 2013 BackgroundVertebrate genomes undergo epigenetic reprogramming during development and disease. Emerging evidence suggests that DNA methylation plays a key role in cell fate determination in the retina.

Semi-Stable Degeneration of Toric Varieties and Their Hypersurfaces [PDF]
, 2006 We provide a construction of examples of semistable degeneration via toric geometry. The applications include a higher dimensional generalization of classical degeneration of K3 surface into 4 rational components, an algebraic geometric version of ...

EMBO reports, 2005 Mitochondria are the main sites of biological energy generation in eukaryotes. These organelles are remnants of a bacterial endosymbiont that took up residence inside a host cell over 1,500 million years ago. Comparative genomics studies suggest that the mitochondrion is monophyletic in origin.

Complement C3 variant and the risk of age-related macular degeneration [PDF]
, 2007 Background: Age-related macular degeneration is the most common cause of blindness in Western populations. Susceptibility is influenced by age and by genetic and environmental factors.

On the Euler characteristic of Kronecker moduli spaces [PDF]
, 2012 Combining the MPS degeneration formula for the Poincar\'e polynomial of moduli spaces of stable quiver representations and localization theory, it turns that the determination of the Euler characteristic of these moduli spaces reduces to a combinatorial ...

$E_1$-degeneration and $d'd''$-lemma [PDF]
, 2015 For a double complex $(A, d', d'')$, we show that if it satisfies the $d'd''$-lemma and the spectral sequence $\{E^{p, q}_r\}$ induced by $A$ does not degenerate at $E_0$, then it degenerates at $E_1$.
