Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Until further definitive conclusions about the mechanisms of microwaves and ionizing radiation induced cataracts are reached, and alternative protective measures are found, one can only recommend mechanical shielding from these radiations to minimize the possibility of development of radiation-inducedCataracts.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: There was evidence that at least some of the tissue plasminogen activator in the aqueous humor was synthesized locally by the structures bordering the anterior chamber of the eye.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The intraocular pressure effects of the DA1 receptor agonist, fenoldopam, are independent of changes in systemic blood pressure, in contrast to those of norepinephrine or angiotensin II where intraocular and systemic blood pressures increase in parallel.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Biochemical analyses of normal lenses from monkey, dog and calf eyes revealed significant levels of tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA), possible functions of which include regulation of deformation that occurs in the anterior lens epithelium and fibers during the process of accommodation, and the destructive remodeling of the extracellular matrix including the lens capsule.
Abstract: Biochemical analyses of normal lenses from monkey, dog and calf eyes revealed significant levels of tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA). By immunohistochemistry, a positive reaction product for t-PA w
