Disease relevance of Aqueous Humor

 

High impact information on Aqueous Humor

  • These results indicate that the normal transport activity of NBC-1 is indispensable not only for the maintenance of corneal and lenticular transparency but also for the regulation of aqueous humor outflow [6].
  • MTMR13 may be important for the development of both the peripheral nerves and the trabeculum meshwork, which permits the outflow of the aqueous humor [7].
  • Northern hybridization analysis showed strong expression of CYP1B1 in the anterior uveal tract, which is involved in secretion of the aqueous humor and in regulation of outflow facility, processes that could contribute to the elevated intraocular pressure characteristic of PCG [8].
  • The regional and subcellular distribution of V-ATPase in specific regions of the ciliary process was altered profoundly by isoproterenol and phorbol esters, suggesting that change in the intracellular distribution of the enzyme is a mechanism by which drugs, hormones, and neurotransmitters modify aqueous humor production [9].
  • Such damage was attenuated by vitamin C in amounts comparable to that in the aqueous humor [10].

Gene context of Aqueous Humor

  • TSP1 is also present in the intraocular fluids and drainage pathway, where it may function in maintaining the anti-angiogenic environment and in intraocular pressure control, respectively [30].
  • Treatment with IL-13 decreased nitrite levels in aqueous humor and enhanced the expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and IL-6 mRNA in ocular tissues [31].
  • Tissue plasminogen activator activity in human aqueous humor [32].
  • To quantify the basal free t-PA activity in human aqueous humor [33].
  • Efficient inhibition was observed against all three isozymes, but especially against CA II and IV (in nanomolar range), the two isozymes known to play a critical role in aqueous humor secretion within the ciliary processes of the eye [34].
