TL;DR: The fabrication and in vivo testing of a similar device engineered to adapt to the human-like size of the eye of the domestic pig is reported, an excellent animal paradigm to test therapeutic strategies for photoreceptors degeneration and highlight the possibility of developing a new generation of conjugated polymer/PET-based prosthetic devices that are highly biocompatible and potentially suitable for subretinal implantation in patients suffering from degenerative blindness.
Journal ArticleDOI
A study on the effects of interaction between naloxone and 2-Br-α-ergocryptine or clonidine on luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, prolactin and thyroid-stimulating hormone levels in normal man serum
TL;DR: The results obtained point to a possible different pattern of LH and FSH secretion after naloxone, that is after opiate receptor blockade, and the clonidine effects on PL secretion are discussed in the frame of a possible adrenergic control of the release of this hormone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of protein kinases in nerve terminal maturation and function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigation of the Stability and Biocompatibility of Commonly Used Electrode Materials in Organic Neurooptoelectronics
TL;DR: In this paper, the SU-8 adhesion layer was used to enhance the long-term performance of the electrodes in solution and further characterized the stability of electrodes following their deposition on a transparent SU8 interlayer.
