We have first observed the nucleation and growth process of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) from
iron carbide (Fe3C) nanoparticles in chemical vapor deposition with C2H2 by in situ …

Although several genetic and biochemical factors are associated with the pathogenesis of
retinal degeneration, it has yet to be determined how these different impairments can cause …

Autophagy is a conserved feature of lysosome-mediated intracellular degradation.
Dysregulated autophagy is implicated as a contributor in neurodegenerative diseases; …

Vertebrate vision is initiated by photoisomerization of the visual pigment chromophore 11-cis-
retinal and is maintained by continuous regeneration of this retinoid through a series of …

We have developed nanoparticles (NPs), which are capable of targeting a specific lesion
and gradually releasing the agent at the site over a prolonged time period after a single …

We have elucidated the synergetic role played by molybdenum in iron-catalyzed chemical
vapor deposition growth of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) by in situ environmental transmission …

Many degenerative retinal diseases illustrate retinal inflammatory changes that include
infiltration of microglia and macrophages into the subretinal space. In this study, we …

Purpose The purpose was to examine the expression of nestin, Ki-67, and cyclin D1 in
Müller cells after laser injury in adult rat retina. Methods The right eyes of adult Brown …

The temperature dependence of the shape of Pt nanoparticles supported on CeO 2 for CO
oxidation was investigated using environmental transmission electron microscopy. Pt …

Aberration-corrected environmental transmission electron microscopy (ETEM) proved that
catalytically active gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) move reversibly and stepwise by …
