ROS‐Responsive Microneedle Patches Enable Peri‐Lacrimal Gland Therapeutic Administration for Long‐Acting Therapy of Sjögren's Syndrome‐Related Dry Eye

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 16, April 24, 2025.
A new strategy for constructing smart gel‐based MN patches is developed to overcome the insufficient drug delivery of eye drops to the lacrimal gland. The gel‐based MN patches achieved long‐acting drug release in a ROS‐responsive manner, and separable base in a temperature‐responsive manner.

Aldehyde dehydrogenase inhibition blocks mucosal fibrosis in human and mouse ocular scarring [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Mucous membrane pemphigoid (MMP) is a systemic mucosal scarring disease, commonly causing blindness, for which there is no antifibrotic therapy. Aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) family 1 is upregulated in both ocular MMP (OMMP) conjunctiva and cultured ...

Loss of the vitamin A receptor RBPR2 in mice disrupts whole‐body retinoid homeostasis and the quantitative balance regulating retinylidene protein synthesis

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 39, Issue 5, 15 March 2025.
Schematic representation outlining the proposed role of the vitamin A receptor RBPR2 in maintaining whole‐body retinoid homeostasis. Abstract The distribution of stored dietary vitamin A/all‐trans‐retinol (ROL) from the liver throughout the body is critical for maintaining retinoid function in peripheral tissues and for generating visual pigments for ...

Ref‐1 redox activity regulates retinal neovascularization by modulating transcriptional activation of HIF‐1α

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 39, Issue 3, 15 February 2025.
Activation of transcription factors such as HIF‐1α underlie retinal neovascularization, a hallmark of proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR). Ref‐1 regulates HIF‐1α by reducing cysteine residues on HIF‐1α, allowing it to bind to hypoxia‐response elements (HRE) and promote the transcription of pro‐angiogenic target genes.

Short-term effects of microstructured surfaces: role in cell differentiation toward a contractile phenotype [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Cell adhesion plays a key role in cell behavior, in terms of migration, proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis. All of these events concur with tissue regeneration and remodeling mechanisms, integrating a complex network of intracellular signaling ...

QM107, a novel CD148 (RTP Type J) activating peptide therapy for treating neovascular age‐related macular degeneration

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 182, Issue 4, Page 951-968, February 2025.
Background and Purpose Angiogenesis is a pathological component of neovascular age‐related macular degeneration. Current therapies, although successful, are prone to high levels of patient non‐response and a loss of efficacy over time, indicating the need to explore other therapeutic avenues. We have shown that an interaction between syndecan‐2 and the

Higher‐Order Aberrations, Corneal Density, and Visual Acuity After Excimer Laser Phototherapeutic Keratectomy (PTK) for Epithelial Basement Membrane Dystrophy

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Background To evaluate visual acuity outcome after excimer laser phototherapeutic keratectomy (PTK) for epithelial basement membrane dystrophy (EBMD) and to provide new insights into higher‐order aberrations (HOAs) and corneal density changes. Methods In this single‐center cohort, 92 eyes from 80 individuals underwent PTK for EBMD, with follow‐up ...
