Visual pigments, ocular filters and the evolution of snake vision [PDF]
, 2016 Much of what is known about the molecular evolution of vertebrate vision comes from studies of mammals, birds and fish. Reptiles (especially snakes) have barely been sampled in previous studies despite their exceptional diversity of retinal photoreceptor

HIF2A as a prognostic and clinical therapeutic target in ovarian clear cell carcinoma
International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.What's New? Ovarian clear cell carcinoma is highly associated with hypoxia. Hypoxia‐inducible factor 2A (HIF2A) is a key regulator of hypoxic responses, but its role in ovarian clear cell carcinoma remains unclear. This study demonstrated the unfavorable prognostic significance of HIF2A expression in ovarian clear cell carcinoma.

Multiple Cone Visual Pigments and the Potential for Trichromatic Colour Vision in Two Species of Elasmobranch [PDF]
, 2004 Elasmobranchs (sharks, skates and rays) are the modern descendents of the first jawed vertebrates and, as apex predators, often occupy the highest trophic levels of aquatic (predominantly marine) ecosystems.

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sepsis‐associated liver injury (SALI) plays a major role in aggravating disease progression and worsening prognosis in patients with sepsis. Macrophage polarization is a key factor in the modulation of SALI progression. Recent studies have shown that human breast milk‐derived exosomes (HBM‐Exos) regulate processes involved in macrophage ...

Contribution to the theory of photopic vision: Retinal phenomena [PDF]
Principles of thermodynamics are applied to the study of the ultramicroscopic anatomy of the inner eye. Concepts introduced and discussed include: the retina as a three-dimensional sensor, light signals as coherent beams in relation to the dimensions of ...

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study explores the regulatory mechanism of the miR‐128‐3p in diabetic retinopathy (DR)‐associated inflammatory injury. A cellular model of DR was established by inducing immortalized human retinal endothelial cells (IM‐HRECs) with high‐glucose (HG).
