Subsequently after 16 days of birth, the rat pups were subjected to morphological examination of the eye for cataract development and graded according to the degree of opacity developed.
In summary, we have generated a knock-in αB-R120G mouse model to study the mechanisms of human hereditary cataract development and have demonstrated that these animals begin to develop cataracts and muscle dysfunction at a young age.
Cataract development was graded by slit-lamp examination and photography.
Project quantifies long-term radiation cataract development in Chernobyl cleanup workers.
Cataract development may be influenced by statins' effects on the oxidation process, the researchers say.
However, the potential of CeCl3@mSiO2 in preventing diabetic cataract development remains unclear.
If, in point of fact, radiation cataract development is not deterministic but instead, stochastic, with no radiation threshold, then re-evaluation of current risk-assessment standards is warranted.
Our results indicate that exposure to proton and HZE particle radiation increases oxidative stress, cytotoxicity, cataract development and malignant transformation in in vivo and/or in vitro experimental systems.
Here we have used lens transcriptome profiling by microarray-hybridization and qPCR to identify pathogenic changes during cataract development in Mip-mutant (Lop/+) mice.
To determine the necessity for the heightened level of monitoring for cataract development in patients taking quetiapine (Seroquel, AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals, Wilmington, Delaware) dictated by the Physicians' Desk Reference.
The clinical trial was initiated largely because of epidemiological studies suggesting that various nutrients, particularly those with antioxidant capabilities, might retard cataract development.
