Pathological classification of Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy into several types and their relationships with CTG18.1 expansion repeats

open access: yesThe Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Late‐onset Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) is the most common primary disease of the corneal endothelium and the leading indication for corneal transplantation in Western countries. It is characterized by progressive accumulation, over two to three decades, of extracellular matrix (ECM) components in Descemet's membrane (DM ...

Tissue‐level heterogeneity in FECD: Descemet's membrane phenotypes and association with TCF4 CTG18.1 expansion†

open access: yesThe Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Late‐onset Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) is commonly framed as a corneal endothelial disease characterised by guttae accumulation and progressive thickening of Descemet's membrane (DM). However, clinical forms and evolutionary profiles vary widely.

Microglial Activation Under Hypoxic Conditions in Early Alzheimer's Disease: Can Natural SIRT1 Activators Be Therapeutic Allies in the Inflammation–Energy Axis?

open access: yesPhytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative condition characterized by a preclinical stage that typically lasts for decades. Early on during this time, microglia react to pathological changes and become protective and even transiently delay neurodegeneration.
