    Light regulates the expression of the BDNF/TrkB system in the adult Zebrafish retina
    (Microscopy Research and Technique, 2012) Guerrera, María Cristina; García Calavia, Marta; Chamorro Gutiérrez, Eva; Montalbano, Giuseppe; López Velasco, Salvador; López Muñiz, Alfonso Joaquín; Germanà, Antonino; Vega Álvarez, José Antonio; Sánchez Ramos, Celia; Bonnin Arias, Cristina Natalia
    The retina of the adult zebrafish express brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and its signaling receptor TrkB. This functional system is involved in the biology of the vertebrate retina and its expression is regulated by light. This study was designed to investigate the effects of cyclic (12 h light/12 h darkness) or continuous (24 h) exposure during 10 days to white light, white‐blue light, and blue light, as well as of darkness, on the expression of BDNF and TrkB in the retina. BDNF and TrkB were assessed in the retina of adult zebrafish using quantitative real‐time polymerase chain reaction and immunohistochemistry. Exposure to white, white‐blue, and blue light causes a decrease of BDNF mRNA and of BDNF immunostaining, independently of the pattern of light exposition. Conversely, in the same experimental conditions, the expression of TrkB mRNA was upregulated and TrkB immunostaining increased. Exposition to darkness diminished BDNF and TrkB mRNAs, and abolished the immunostaining for BDNF but not modified that for TrkB. These results demonstrate the regulation of BDNF and TrkB by light in the retina of adult zebrafish and might contribute to explain some aspects of the complex pathophysiology of light‐induced retinopathies.

    Visión Limitada: Variación de la percepción visual por la utilización de Equipos de Protección Individual para intervenciones NRBQ
    (Seguridad y Medio Ambiente (Fundación Mapfre), 2010) Bonnin Arias, Cristina Natalia; Navarro Valls, Juan José; Lobato Rincón, Luis Lucio; Ramirez Mercado, Guillermo; Sánchez Ramos, Celia
    Los equipos de protección individual (EPI) preparados para entornos de riesgos NRBQ (entornos de riesgo Nuclear-Radiológico-Biológico-Químico), que aíslan y protegen a los intervinientes en estas acciones, presentan importantes limitaciones para la percepción visual. En este artículo, se estudio por primera vez cuál es el grado de afectación de las capacidades visuales de los usuarios cuando actúan protegidos por un EPI de este tipo. Estos EPIs, por sus condiciones de aislantes y protectores, presentan importantes limitaciones físicas que dan lugar a una percepción visual deficiente del entorno: resolución espacial, sensibilidad al contraste y la percepción del color por la superposición de superficies transparentes sin calidad óptica.
