Proteomic analysis of the bovine and human ciliary zonule [PDF]
PURPOSE: The zonule of Zinn (ciliary zonule) is a system of fibers that centers the crystalline lens on the optical axis of the eye. Mutations in zonule components underlie syndromic conditions associated with a broad range of ocular pathologies ...

An in situ-forming polyzwitterion hydrogel: Towards vitreous substitute application
Development of a biostable and biosafe vitreous substitute is highly desirable, but remains a grand challenge. Herein, we propose a novel strategy for constructing a readily administered vitreous substitute based on a thiol-acrylate clickable ...

Expression profiling of ascorbic acid–related transporters in human and mouse eyes [PDF]
PURPOSE: Ascorbic acid (AsA) is an important antioxidant in the eye. Ascorbic acid is usually transported by sodium-dependent AsA transporters (SVCTs), and dehydroascorbic acid (DHA) by glucose transporters (GLUTs).

New frontiers in thermal analysis: A TG/Chemometrics approach for postmortem interval estimation in vitreous humor [PDF]
The coupling of thermogravimetric analysis (TG) associated with chemometrics is proposed as an innovative approach in thanatochemistry in order to develop a new analytical tool using thermal analysis for the characterization of vitreous humor.
