Histological and Immunohistochemical Study on the Effect of Sodium iodate on the Retina of Adult Male Albino Rat and the Possible Protective Role of Silymarin [PDF]
Background: Retinal degenerative diseases are induced by many environmental and genetic agents and may lead to permanent blindness. Induced retinal degeneration by sodium iodate (NaIO3) is widely used to study mechanism of retinal cell death.

Deletion of the stress response protein REDD1 prevents sodium iodate-induced RPE damage and photoreceptor loss. [PDF]
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of blindness in elderly populations, yet the molecular events that initiate the early retinal defects that lead to visual function deficits remain poorly understood.

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) released from dying cells with high concentrations is sensed as a danger signal by the P2X7 receptor. Sodium iodate (NaIO3) is an oxidative toxic agent, and its retinal toxicity has been used as the model of dry age-related ...

RNA-seq analysis reveals differentially expressed inflammatory chemokines in a rat retinal degeneration model induced by sodium iodate. [PDF]
Objective Retinal degeneration (RD) is a group of serious blinding eye diseases characterized by photoreceptor cell apoptosis and progressive degeneration of retinal neurons. However, the underlying mechanism of its pathogenesis remains unclear.

The Lyotropic Nature of Halates: An Experimental Study
Unlike halides, where the kosmotropicity decreases from fluoride to iodide, the kosmotropic nature of halates apparently increases from chlorate to iodate, in spite of the lowering in the static ionic polarizability.

Inhibition of DUSP6 Activates Autophagy and Rescues the Retinal Pigment Epithelium in Sodium Iodate-Induced Retinal Degeneration Models In Vivo and In Vitro. [PDF]
Autophagy plays a protective role in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) by eliminating damaged organelles in response to reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Clearance phagocytosis is a documented function of Müller glia in the retina. However, the molecular mechanisms of Müller glia phagocytosis remain largely undefined. Here, we show that extracellular galectin-3 and protein S promote clearance phagocytosis
