Hydrogen peroxide enhances transforming growth factor beta-2 induced epithelial–mesenchymal transition of ARPE-19 cells

open access: yesBeni-Suef University Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences, 2023
Background In the pathophysiology of the retina, the epithelial–mesenchymal transition and oxidative stress play key roles. To find a relationship between oxidative stress and diabetic retinopathy or proliferative retinopathy, we used an in-silico ...

MTCD: Cataract Detection via Near Infrared Eye Images [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Globally, cataract is a common eye disease and one of the leading causes of blindness and vision impairment. The traditional process of detecting cataracts involves eye examination using a slit-lamp microscope or ophthalmoscope by an ophthalmologist, who checks for clouding of the normally clear lens of the eye. The lack of resources and unavailability

Understanding the dynamics of biological colloids to elucidate cataract formation towards the development of methodology for its early diagnosis [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Magazine 88, 4161 (2008), 2008
The eye lens is the most characteristic example of mammalian tissues exhibiting complex colloidal behaviour. In this paper we briefly describe how dynamics in colloidal suspensions can help addressing selected aspects of lens cataract which is ultimately related to the protein self-assembly under pathological conditions.
