The initial time course of the change in photoreceptor outer segment membrane conductance in response to light flashes has been… (More)

PURPOSE It was previously demonstrated that toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) is involved in species-specific human retinal pigment… (More)

We have examined questions related to the biosynthesis of A2E, a fluorophore that accumulates in retinal pigment epithelial cells… (More)

The autofluorescent lipofuscin that accumulates in retinal pigment epithelial cells with age may contribute to an age-related… (More)

Within the retina, the Müller cells and photoreceptors are in close physical proximity and are metabolically coupled. It is… (More)

Vertebrate retinal photoreceptors periodically shed membrane from their outer segment distal tips; this material is phagocytosed… (More)

alpha A- and alpha B-Crystallins are significant contributors to maintaining the transparency of the vertebrate lens. We have… (More)

Primary events in the course of light induced retinal lesions are still not fully elucidated. Under chronic conditions, lipid… (More)

Cyclic nucleotide activated sodium currents were recorded from photoreceptor outer segment membrane patches. The concentration of… (More)
