Effect of Oxygen on Developing Retinal Vessels with Particular Reference to the Problem of Retrolental Fibroplasia

THE evidence for regarding an abnormal overgrowth of the developing retinal vessels as the pathological basis of retrolental fibroplasia has been reviewed and discussed in an earlier paper in this issue (Ashton, 1954a). This fundamental dysplasia considered alone appeared to indicate thatthe disease was probably no more than a violent " activation of the normal process of retinal vascularization, so that the narrow confines of the nerve fibre layer could no longer contain the exuberant vaso-formative tissue, which conse-quently burst through the limiting membrane to invade the vitreous and so initiated a train of events terminating in total retinal detachment and the formation of a retrolental fibrous membrane. The stimulus which normally attracts the vessels into the retina is itself unknown, but it has been assumed, in general terms, to be a response to the oxygen demands of the inner layers of the retina, which the choroidal circulation is no longer able to satisfy as the eye develops. If retrolental fibroplasia began simply as an overgrowth of normal vaso-formative tissue, it seemed possible that it might occur in response to a stimulus identical in nature with the normal but excessive in degree, a variation which thus appeared to be related to a disparity between oxygen supply and demand. On such a basis, however, it was difficult if not impossible to reconcile the apparently conflicting theories that retrolental fibroplasia was due t

Chiral Co₃Y Propeller-Shaped Chemosensory Platforms Based on ¹⁹F-NMR

Two propeller-shaped chiral CoIII3YIII complexes built from fluorinated ligands are synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SXRD), IR, UV–vis, circular dichroism (CD), elemental analysis, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), electron spray ionization mass spectroscopy (ESI-MS), and NMR (1H, 13C, and 19F). This work explores the sensing and discrimination abilities of these complexes, thus providing an innovative sensing method using a 19F NMR chemosensory system and opening new directions in 3d/4f chemistry. Control experiments and theoretical studies shed light on the sensing mechanism, while the scope and limitations of this method are discussed and presented
