Eye lens proteomics

open access: yesAmino Acids, 2006
The eye lens is a fascinating organ as it is in essence living transparent matter. Lenticular transparency is achieved through the peculiarities of lens morphology, a semi-apoptotic process where cells elongate and loose their organelles and the precise molecular arrangement of the bulk of soluble lenticular proteins, the crystallins.

A multi-parameter grading system for optimal fitting of scleral contact lenses [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2022
Background: While scleral lens practise has improved over the years due to factors such as availability of lenses with better materials and designs as well as experience of practitioners, a lack of objectivity appears to remain in terms of assessment of ...

A deep learning method for automatic segmentation of the bony orbit in MRI and CT images

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
This paper proposes a fully automatic method to segment the inner boundary of the bony orbit in two different image modalities: magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT).

A Model for Investigating Developmental Eye Repair in Xenopus Laevis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Vertebrate eye development is complex and requires early interactions between neuroectoderm and surface ectoderm during embryogenesis. In the African clawed frog, Xenopus laevis, individual eye tissues such as the retina and lens can undergo regeneration.

Air kerma to H-P(3) conversion coefficients for IEC 61267 RQR X-RAY radiation qualities: application to dose monitoring of the lens of the eye in medical diagnostics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Recent studies highlight the fact that the new eye lens dose limit can be exceeded in interventional radiology procedures and that eye lens monitoring could be required for these workers.

Differentiation state-specific mitochondrial dynamic regulatory networks are revealed by global transcriptional analysis of the developing chicken lens. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The mature eye lens contains a surface layer of epithelial cells called the lens epithelium that requires a functional mitochondrial population to maintain the homeostasis and transparency of the entire lens.

A preliminary evaluation of the implementation of a radiation protection program for the lens of the eye in Korean nuclear power plants

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2021
Epidemiological research has revealed that radiation exposure can cause cataracts. The Korean nuclear regulatory body has proposed the reduction of the occupational dose limit for the lens of the eye from 150 mSv/y to 100 mSv/5y, with an additional ...
