Targeted modulation of IGFL2‐AS1 reveals its translational potential in cervical adenocarcinoma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cervical adenocarcinoma patients face worse outcomes than squamous cell carcinoma counterparts despite similar treatment. The identification of IGFL2‐AS1's differential expression provides a molecular basis for distinguishing these histotypes, paving the way for personalized therapies and improved survival in vulnerable populations globally.

Loss of amplitude of accommodation in pre-presbyopic HIV and AIDS patients under treatment with antiretrovirals

African Vision and Eye Health, 2017
Background: The prevalence of HIV and AIDS is causing an enormous public health burden. Its manifestations spare no organ. Ocular complications are mainly attributed to various opportunistic infections which are directly or indirectly caused by immune ...

Patterns of Nonlinearity in the Ratio of Stimulus Accommodative Convergence to Accommodation

, 1996
Background: This study disputes the assumption that the stimulus accommodative convergence to accommodation (AC/A) ratio is linear. Subjects and Methods: Accommodative convergence induced by minus lenses of varying power (-1.50 to -6.00DS, at intervals

Eye shape and retinal shape, and their relation to peripheral refraction [PDF]

, 2012
Purpose: We provide an account of the relationships between eye shape, retinal shape and peripheral refraction. Recent findings: We discuss how eye and retinal shapes may be described as conicoids, and we describe an axis and section reference system for

The influence of tinted lenses upon ocular accommodation

Vision Research, 2001
We determined the effect upon accommodative responses of tinted lenses prescribed for the relief of visual discomfort in a group of five long term lens wearers. Static and dynamic responses were measured under four viewing conditions (1) prescribed tinted lens (2) neutral density filter (3) tinted lens of complementary colour and (4) no absorptive lens.

The photoswitchable cannabinoid azo‐HU308 enables optical control of Ca2+ dynamics in INS‐1 β‐cells via off‐target effects on TRPC channels

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Light activation of the photoswitchable cannabinoid ligand azo‐HU308 triggers Ca2+ influx in pancreatic β‐cells through TRPC channels, independent of CB2 cannabinoid receptors. This reveals a non‐GPCR pathway for cannabinoid modulation of β‐cell Ca2+ dynamics and establishes azo‐HU308 as an optical tool to study cannabinoid signaling through TRP ...

SmallTalk: a novel small‐sized fusion tag for peptide expression and purification

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The SmallTalk fusion tag allows for the efficient expression and purification of soluble recombinant proteins or peptides in Escherichia coli. Testing with SmallTalk‐GFP confirmed that the proteins were soluble and folded correctly, while SmallTalk‐Bin1b maintained its antimicrobial activity against various bacterial isolates. This streamlined workflow

Focused and defocused retinal images with Bessel and axicon pupil functions. [PDF]

, 2020
Retinal image light distributions in a standard optical model of a diffraction-limited eye with round pupils are presented for several patterns of amplitude and phase modulation of the light admitted into the eye.
