Abstract Significance: Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has been recognized as a physiological
mediator with a variety of functions. It regulates synaptic transmission, vascular tone …

Forensic DNA identification techniques are principally based on determination of the size or
sequence of desired PCR products. The fragmentation of DNA templates or the structural …

Apoptosis plays a major role in shaping the developing nervous system during
embryogenesis as neuronal precursors differentiate to become post‐mitotic neurons …

Programmed cell death (PCD) is an evolutionarily conserved contributor to nervous system
development. In the vertebrate peripheral nervous system, PCD is the basis of the …

Human retinal dystrophies and degenerations and light-induced retinal degenerations in
animal models are sharing an important feature: visual cell death by apoptosis. Studying …

Apoptosis has been shown to be a significant form of cell loss in many diseases.
Detachment of photoreceptors from the retinal pigment epithelium, as seen in various retinal …

The cellular mechanisms underlying hereditary photoreceptor degeneration are still poorly
understood, a problem that is exacerbated by the enormous genetic heterogeneity of this …

Photoreceptor cell death is the ultimate cause of vision loss in various retinal disorders,
including retinal detachment (RD). Photoreceptor cell death has been thought to occur …

The P23H mutation within the rhodopsin gene (RHO) causes rhodopsin misfolding,
endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, and activates the unfolded protein response (UPR) …

Neurons completely transform how they regulate cell death over the course of their lifetimes.
Developing neurons freely activate cell death pathways to fine-tune the number of neurons …
