Protective effect of passive immunization on herpetic retinitis of newborn rabbits.

abstract：PURPOSE:Corneal wound healing after excimer laser photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) passes through a series of characteristic stages which have earlier been defined by means of histological, histochemical, and biochemical approaches. We investigated the potential of confocal microscopy to verify morphological changes i...

abstract：PURPOSE:NiCl(2) (15 microM) enhances the ERG b-wave amplitude of vertebrate retina, up to 1.5-fold by blocking E/R-type voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels, which is mediated by blocking the release of GABA onto ionotropic GABA-A and GABA-C receptors. In vivo, it is likely that zinc, rather than nickel ions, may be involved ...
