Evolution of Visual and Non-visual Pigments

Edited by David M. Hunt, Mark W. Hankins, N. Justin Marshall, Shaun P Collin ...

Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
Photopigments are molecules that react to light and mediate a number of processes and behaviours in animals. Visual pigments housed within the photoreceptors of the eye, such as the rods and cones in vertebrates are the best known, however, visual pigments are increasingly being found in other tissues, including other retinal cells, the skin and the brain. Other closely related molecules from the ... Read more

Müller Cells in the Healthy and Diseased Retina

by Andreas Reichenbach, Andreas Bringmann ...

Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
Müller cells may be used in the future for novel therapeutic strategies to protect neurons against apoptosis (for example, somatic gene therapy), or to differentiate retinal neurons from Müller/stem cells. Meanwhile, a proper understanding of the gliotic responses of Müller cells in the diseased retina, and of their protective vs. detrimental effects, is essential for the development of efficient ...

Trinucleotide Diseases and Instability

Edited by Ben A. Oostra ...

Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
Till recently, mutations in genes were described in textbooks as deletions or point mutations. These mutations can be inherited from a parent or they are de novo alterations. The discovery in 1991 that human disease can be caused by large-scale ex pansion of highly unstable trinucleotide repeats has elucidated a new mutation mechanism, heritable unstable DNA.

The Catecholaminergic Innervation of the Rat Amygdala

by Esther Asan ...

Series Book 142 - Advances in Anatomy, Embryology and Cell Biology
Experimental evidence indicated that catecholamines are able to modulate information processing in the amygdaloid complex. The present study provides a detailed documentation of ultrastructural and neurochmical characteristics of dopaminergic, noradrinergic, and adrenergic afferent fibers and of their target structures in central, basal and intercalated amygdaloid nuclei. ...

DJ-1/PARK7 Protein

Parkinson’s Disease, Cancer and Oxidative Stress-Induced Diseases

Edited by Hiroyoshi Ariga, Sanae M. M. Iguchi-Ariga ...

Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
This book reviews the functions and roles of DJ-1 in various oxidative stress-related diseases and applications of DJ-1 and its binding compounds to the diseases. The DJ-1 gene was first found to be a novel oncogene in 1997 and later, in 2003, also found to be a causative gene for a familial form of Parkinson’s disease (PD), park7. The DJ-1 gene is therefore the first gene discovered that is known ... Read more
