Matrix Metalloproteinases and Glaucoma Treatment. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of proteolytic enzymes that degrade extracellular matrix (ECM) components such as collagen and have important roles in multiple biological processes, including development and tissue remodeling, both in ...

Interleukin-1β sequesters hypoxia inducible factor 2α to the primary cilium. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: The primary cilium coordinates signalling in development, health and disease. Previously we have shown that the cilium is essential for the anabolic response to loading and the inflammatory response to interleukin-1β (IL-1β).

Ciliary body thickness changes after preoperative anti-inflammatory treatment in rhegmatogenous retinal detachment complicated by choroidal detachment

open access: yesGraefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology, 2017
BackgroundThe literature is scant on the state of the ciliary body, its role in the development of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) complicated by choroidal detachment (CD), and on ciliary body changes following the treatment aimed at resolving ...

Quantitative Measurements of the Ciliary Body in Eyes With Acute Primary-Angle Closure.

open access: yesInvestigative Ophthalmology and Visual Science, 2016
PURPOSE To compare the structural differences of the ciliary body in patients with acute primary-angle closure (APAC) and normal subjects. METHODS Forty-four patients with APAC in one eye and 25 eyes from 25 age-matched normal subjects were ...

Ciliary body schwannoma. [PDF]

open access: yesActa ophthalmologica Scandinavica, 1999
Intraocular schwannomas are very rare, benign, peripheral nerve neoplasms. The authors report a case of ciliary body schwannoma.A 39-year-old Korean woman presented with slowly decreasing visual acuity and proptosis of the right eye for 4 years. At the time of her visit, the eyeball protruded and deviated laterally.

Proteomic analysis of the bovine and human ciliary zonule [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
PURPOSE: The zonule of Zinn (ciliary zonule) is a system of fibers that centers the crystalline lens on the optical axis of the eye. Mutations in zonule components underlie syndromic conditions associated with a broad range of ocular pathologies ...

Ciliary force-responsive striated fibers promote basal body connections and cortical interactions

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 2019
Soh et al. study the organization of Tetrahymena ciliary arrays. Basal body–associated striated fibers organize motile cilia by promoting basal body orientation, reorientation, and resistance to ciliary forces.

Basal body stability and ciliogenesis requires the conserved component Poc1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Centrioles are the foundation for centrosome and cilia formation. The biogenesis of centrioles is initiated by an assembly mechanism that first synthesizes the ninefold symmetrical cartwheel and subsequently leads to a stable cylindrical microtubule ...

The Masquerades of a Childhood Ciliary Body Medulloepithelioma: A Case of Chronic Uveitis, Cataract, and Secondary Glaucoma

open access: yesCase Reports in Ophthalmological Medicine, 2012
Ciliary body medulloepitheliomas in childhood often masquerade other intraocular conditions due to its insidious nature as well as its secondary effects on proximal intraocular tissues in the anterior chamber.
