Notch Signaling in Pigment Cells and Generation of Mouse Models for Ocular Diseases

Cellular signaling mediated by Notch receptors results in coordinated regulation of cell growth, survival and differentiation. In melanocytes, Notch signaling is essential for the maintenance of melanocytes and the melanocyte stem cell population. Whereas, ...

Biomimetic soft lithography on curved nanostructured surfaces

Jürgen Brugger, Victor Javier Cadarso Busto, Thomas Kiefer, Valentin Flauraud, Vaida Auzelyte

In this paper a nano-molding process using a nature-created master is demonstrated. The eye of night moth Agotis exclamationis having 100 nm-scale structures on a curved surface is used as biomimetic master mold from which nanostructures are replicated ont ...

RBP-Jκ-dependent Notch signaling enhances retinal pigment epithelial cell proliferation in transgenic mice

Freddy Radtke, Friedrich Beermann, Iraz Toprak Aydin

The Notch signaling pathway is an ubiquitous cell-cell interaction mechanism, which is essential in controlling processes like cell proliferation, cell fate decision, differentiation or stem cell maintenance. Recent data have shown that Notch signaling is ...

A colloidal approach to eye lens protein mixtures : relevance for cataract formation

Nicolas Dorsaz

A broad and constantly growing class of diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, sickle-cell or cataract, involves protein association phenomena as an essential aspect. The common denominator of all the members of this class of molecular condensation disease ...

Time-domain optical coherence tomography with digital holographic microscopy

Christian Depeursinge, Etienne Cuche, Pierre Marquet, Florian Charrière, Pia Massatsch

We show that digital holography can be combined easily with optical coherence tomography approach. Varying the reference path length is the means used to acquire a series of holograms at different depths, providing after reconstruction images of slices at ...

Low coherence digital holographic microscopy : applications to vision in turbid media and biomedical imaging

Pia Massatsch

A new holographic technique combining digital holographic microscopy with the use of low coherence light has been developed and the potential of the resulting method for vision in turbid media and biomedical imaging has been evaluated. In digital holograph ...

Optische Augenlängenmessung für klinische Anwendungen

Beate Möller

Cataract is the leading cause of blindness worldwide. The clouding of the human eye lens is called "Grauer Star" in German. In the industrialized countries this process of increased blindness is corrected by the surgical removal of the clouded lens and its ...
