rd1 Photoreceptor Degeneration: Photoreceptor Rescue and Role of Metalloproteases in Retinal Degeneration
… and their tissue inhibitors in photoreceptor degeneration (TIMPs). The rd1 mouse model displays a retina degeneration which starts around day 10 with rod photoreceptor cell death. By 21 days after birth virtually all rod photoreceptors in the retina have died, and subsequent cone degeneration …

Mechanisms of microglia induced retinal degeneration
… diseases including age-related macular degeneration(AMD), retinitis pigmentosa (RP), diabetic retinopathy (DR) and glaucoma arecharacterized by irreversible vision loss and currently have very limited therapies.Evidence has suggested the immune profile and inflammatory etiology in …

Role of oxidative stress in photoreceptor degeneration
… retinal dystrophies associated with progressive degeneration of photoreceptor cells. Mutations in numerous genes have been implicated in RP, which have distinct pathophysiological mechanisms and lead to retinal degeneration at different rates. The aim of this thesis was to investigate the role of …

Apathy and Impulsivity in Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration
Apathy and Impulsivity in Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration Ian Coyle-Gilchrist Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration (FTLD) is pathologically heterogeneous group of degenerative diseases of the brain. While there are distinct and highly recognisable clinical syndromes associated with FTLD there is …

Characterization of the Paraneoplastic Cerebellar Degeneration Antigen Cdr2
<p>Paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration (PCD) is a remote effect of breast and ovarian cancer on the nervous system. It is believed to arise when these tumors ectopically express a neuron-specific protein, thereby initiating an anti-tumor immune response that subsequently develops into a neuronal …

Advanced imaging biomarkers in age-related macular degeneration
Η ηλικιακή εκφύλιση της ωχράς κηλίδας, είναι μία κύρια αιτία σημαντικής μείωσης της όρασης παγκοσμίως, ενώ η επίπτωση της εκτιμάται ότι θα αυξηθεί σημαντικά. Η αναγνώριση πρώιμων βιοδεικτών που θα σημάνουν την αυξημένη πιθανότητα μετάπτωσης από πρώιμα σε πιο προχωρημένα στάδια της νόσου, που …

Apathy and Impulsivity in Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration Syndromes
… genetic fractionation of frontotemporal lobar degeneration syndromes in recent years, driving the development of novel diagnostic criteria. However, phenotypic boundaries are not always distinct and syndromes converge with disease progression, limiting the insights available from traditional …

Investigating the role of eEF1A2 in motor neuron degeneration
… in disease states such as motor neuron degeneration and cancer. Two variants of eEF1A are found in mammals, named eEF1A1 and eEF1A2. These two variants are encoded by different genes, produce proteins which are 92% identical but have very different patterns of expression. eEF1A1 is …

Effects of combination therapies on age-related macular degeneration
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the most common cause of vision loss in America for people over the age of 60. Due to damage to the retina, symptoms normally include blurred central vision, difficulty reading, and seeing shadows. While there is no cure for the disease, there are …
