    • Apoptosis of the hyaloid vessels in vivo and in vitro in the newborn rat eye 

      Evans, Irene; Curanovic, D.; Bucher, B.; Roberts, S. (Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology: Investigative Ophthalmology and Visual Science, 2004)
      Purpose: In the newborn rat eye, the hyaloid vasculature persists after birth and regresses postnatally. Several studies have shown that apoptosis plays a role in this regression although the mechanism is unknown. Apoptosis ...

    • Nutrient deprivation may be a poor inducer of apoptosis in the newborn rat eye 

      Evans, Irene; Adams, S. (Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology: Investigative Ophthalmology and Visual Science, 2003)
      Purpose: The hyaloid vasculature of the newborn rat eye persists after birth and regresses postnatally. One hypothesis is that regression occurs due to a decrease in blood flow to the hyaloid after retinal development and ...

    • Tree eye endothelial cells undergo apoptosis after serum starvation 

      Evans, Irene; Van Winkle, B. (Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology: Investigative Ophthalmology and Visual Science, 2002)
      Purpose: Several explanations have been suggested for why endothelial cells undergo apoptosis in the regressing blood vessels found in the newborn rat eye. These explanations hypothesize that apoptosis occurs due to lack ...
