Maximal levator resection versus Gore-Tex® sling for congenital blepharoptosis with poor levator function

open access: yesOman Journal of Ophthalmology, 2021
BACKGROUND: Treating congenital blepharoptosis is often mandatory to clear the visual access and avoid amblyopia; however, when the levator function is poor, achieving a satisfactory long-term outcome is challenging.

PDK4 and nutrient responses explain muscle specific manifestation in mitochondrial disease

open access: yesClinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.
Mitochondrial disease triggers opposite responses in different muscles. Mitochondrial integrated stress response (ISRmt) and aerobic glycolysis characterize large muscles. Eye muscles show no ISRmt but activate PDK4—inhibitor of glucose oxidation—thereby upregulating beta‐oxidation, which is non‐optimal in mitochondrial disease and can explain eye ...

OXA1L deficiency causes mitochondrial myopathy via reactive oxygen species regulated nuclear factor kappa B signalling pathway

open access: yesClinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2025.
OXA1L gene bi‐allelic variants cause mitochondrial myopathy. OXA1L deficiency results in combined mitochondrial respiratory chain defects and OXPHOS impairments. OXA1L deficiency leads to elevated ROS production, which may activate the NF‐κB signalling pathway, disturbing myogenic gene expression and triggering cell apoptosis. Abstract Background OXA1L
