An appreciation of the biological characteristics of the human ocular surface epithelium
affords us a great insight into the physiology of the human ocular surface in health and …

The ancient cell adhesion fasciclin (FAS) domain is found in bacteria, fungi, algae, insects

The physiological responses of the rodent uterus to acute estrogen (E) dosing can be
divided into early and late events. Examples of early responses include increased RNA …

Serial analysis of gene expression was used to identify transcripts encoding secreted or cell
surface proteins that were expressed in benign and malignant tumors of the colorectum. A …

We have previously identified a gene, βig-h3, which is highly induced in A549 cells (human
lung adenocarcinoma) after growth arrest by transforming growth factor-β. The βig-h3 gene …

Transforming growth factor beta-induced (TGFBI) corneal dystrophies are a group of
inherited progressive corneal diseases. Accumulation of transforming growth factor beta …

The lattice corneal dystrophies (LCD) and granular corneal dystrophies (GCD) are
autosomal dominant disorders of the corneal stroma. They are bilateral, progressive …

A 66-kDa collagen fiber-associated protein (RGD-CAP) was isolated from a fiber-rich
fraction of pig cartilage by ultrafiltration and collagen-affinity chromatography. Amino acid …
