Development of a Zebrafish Embryo‐Based Test System for Thyroid Hormone System Disruption: 3Rs in Ecotoxicological Research

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, EarlyView.
Abstract There is increasing concern regarding pollutants disrupting the vertebrate thyroid hormone (TH) system, which is crucial for development. Thus, identification of TH system–disrupting chemicals (THSDCs) is an important requirement in the Organisation for Economic Co‐operation and Development (OECD) testing framework.

Modelling directionality of photoreceptors in the human eye as a function of monochromatic aberrations [PDF]

, 2000
The cone photoreceptors of the retina are directed towards the centre of the eye’s pupil. It has been suggested that the photoreceptors directionality is linked to the optical aberrations induced by the cornea and crystalline lens in the eye.

Metabolite Profiles and Antioxidant Activity of Dendrobium catenatum Under Simulated Wild Cultivation

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Dendrobium catenatum grown under simulated wild cultivation showed significantly higher flavonoids and stilbenes, leading to enhanced antioxidant activity in both leaves and stems compared to facility‐grown plants. Integrated metabolomics, antioxidant assays, and network pharmacology identified Denbinobin as a key multi‐target antioxidant compound ...

Characteristics of Exocytosis and Endocytosis in Photoreceptors [PDF]

, 2015
Photoreceptors signal changes in light intensity to downstream retinal neurons through the exocytosis of glutamate-containing synaptic vesicles. The maintenance of the vesicle exocytosis and endocytosis process is essential for ongoing synaptic signaling.
