Increased ocular levels of IGF-1 in transgenic mice lead to diabetes-like eye disease.
IGF-1 has been associated with the pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy, although its role is not fully understood. Here we show that normoglycemic/normoinsulinemic transgenic mice overexpressing… Expand

Scavenger function of resident autofluorescent perivascular macrophages and their contribution to the maintenance of the blood-retinal barrier.
PURPOSE The retina contains two distinct populations of monocyte-derived cells: perivascular macrophages, and microglia. The present study was undertaken to evaluate the presence and function in… Expand

Lymphatic drainage of Listeria inonocytogenes and Indian ink inoculated in the peritoneal cavity of the mouse
The lymphatic drainage of the peritoneal cavity has been investigated by intraperitoneal inoculation of an intracellular bacterium (Listeria monocytogenes) and an inert marker (Indian ink). The… Expand

In vivo gene transfer to pancreatic beta cells by systemic delivery of adenoviral vectors.
Type 1 diabetes results from autoimmune destruction of pancreatic beta cells. This process might be reversed by genetically engineering the endocrine pancreas in vivo to express factors that induce… Expand

L-Ferritin Binding to Scara5: A New Iron Traffic Pathway Potentially Implicated in Retinopathy
Iron is essential in the retina because the heme-containing enzyme guanylate cyclase modulates phototransduction in rods and cones. Transferrin endocytosis is the classical pathway for obtaining iron… Expand

Disposition of netobimin, albendazole, and its metabolites in the pregnant rat: developmental toxicity.
Netobimin (NTB), a benzimidazole prodrug with a good anthelmintic spectrum, was administered orally to female rats at a dose of 59.5 mg NTB/kg, to study its pharmacokinetic behavior and the… Expand

Cellular Senescence Is Associated With Human Retinal Microaneurysm Formation During Aging.
Purpose Microaneurysms are present in healthy old-age human retinas. However, to date, no age-related pathogenic mechanism has been implicated in their formation. Here, cellular senescence, a… Expand

Carbohydrate characterization of quail primordial germ cells during migration and gonadal differentiation
A selection of lectins were used to study changes in the distribution of sugar residues in primordial germ cells (PGCs) during gonadal colonization and differentiation. Although the cytochemical… Expand

In vivo gene transfer to healthy and diabetic canine pancreas.
Gene therapy may provide new treatments for severe pancreatic disorders. However, gene transfer to the pancreas is difficult because of its anatomic location and structure, and pancreatitis is a… Expand

Intercapillary bridging cells: immunocytochemical characteristics of cells that connect blood vessels in the retina.
Intervascular bridges are fibrous strands that connect neighboring capillaries. These strands present associated cells, intervascular bridging cells (IBCs), whose nature and functional significance… Expand
