We used histological and electroretinogram methods to investigate eye structure and function in Macrobrachium rosenbergii . M. rosenbergii was demonstrated to have superposition compound eyes with a clear zone. Rhabdom volume dramatically increased only under dark-adapted conditions at night. The eyes ...
Eye (1987) 1, 175-183 Structure, Function and Ageing of the Collagens of the Eye ALLEN 1. BAILEY Bristol I. Introduci:ion The collagenous tissues of the eye have received considerable attention since, 'apart from the importance of the organ itself, the eye is composed of several highly ...
α-Crystallin is a major lens protein, comprising up to 40% of total lens proteins, where its structural function is to assist in maintaining the proper refractive index in the lens. In addition to its structural role, it has been shown to function in a chaperone-like manner. The chaperone...
The visual properties of the stemmata of fourth and fifth instar sawfly larvae have been investigated by means of intracellular electrophysiological recordings, interference-, light-, scanning, and transmission electron microscopy, and ray tracing techniques. Each larva possesses one pair of lateral ocell...

Sex-related differences in the relationship between acceleromyographic adductor pollicis train-of-four ratio and clinical manifestations of residual neurom... Background. Studies in volunteers suggest that train-of-four (TOF) ratios >0.9 are needed to retain normal function of muscles involved in ...

Currently, we know very little about the function and structure of the ocelli in ants. There is some evidence in the diurnal desert ant, Cataglyphis bicolor, that ocelli are involved in detecting changes in the pattern of polarized skylight16,18, but there have been no descriptions of the ...
sequence periods. The error bar shows the 95% confidence interval, evaluated using bootstrap. In the bootstrap procedure, time lags from resampled data are converted into phase angles and averaged using the circular mean.cThe cross-correlation function between single-trial blink signal and vertical...
αA and αB, whose aggregate formation is necessary for molecular chaperoning activity. Isolation and characterization of α-crystallin from a wide range of vertebrates will help in understanding a better structure–function relationship in a broader sense, which is yet to be achieved. The stability...
