摘要:
A semiconductor device is manufactured by forming a hole as being extended through a first insulating film and an insulating interlayer stacked over a semiconductor substrate, allowing side-etching of the inner wall of the hole to proceed specifically in a portion of the insulating interlayer, to thereby form a structure having the first insulating film projected out from the edge towards the center of the hole; forming a lower electrode film as being extended over the top surface, side face and back surface of the first insulating film, and over the inner wall and bottom surface of the hole; filling a protective film in the hole; removing the lower electrode film specifically in portions fallen on the top surface and side face of the first insulating film; removing the protective film; and forming a cylindrical capacitor in the hole.

A cell culture system related to extended in vitro culture of mature retinal cells and methods for preparing the cell culture system are provided. Also provided is a retinal cell culture stress model related to extended in vitro culture of mature retinal cells in the presence of a stressor and methods for using the cell culture stress model. The invention provides a cell culture system comprising a long-term culture of mature retinal cells, without requiring addition of other types of non-retinal cells such as purified glia, or cells isolated from ciliary bodies within the eye, and the addition of a stressor such as light, A2E, cigarette smoke condensate, glutamate, or hydrostatic pressure. Methods for identifying bioactive agents that alter viability, neurodegeneration, or survival of retinal cells using the retinal cell culture stress system are also provided.

摘要:
The present invention relates generally to the preparation and use of retinoid N-retinylidene-N-retinyl-ethanolamine (A2E) conjugated to a carrier polypeptide and to the preparation and use of antibodies that bind specifically to A2E. The invention relates to the use of A2E conjugates as immunogens or vaccines and to the use of A2E specific antibodies for treatment of ophthalmic diseases. Provided herein are methods for enhancing retinal neuronal cell survival, including photoreceptor cell survival, using antibodies that specifically bind to A2E or by inducing an immune response using an A2E immunoconjugate. Enhancing survival of photoreceptor cells or decreasing accumulation of A2E in the eye using the A2E immunoconjugates or A2E specific antibodies is useful for treatment of ophthalmic diseases such as macular degeneration.
