Cx43-hemichannel function and regulation in physiology and pathophysiology: insights from the bovine corneal endothelial cell system and beyond [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Intercellular communication in primary bovine corneal endothelial cells (BCECs) is mainly driven by the release of extracellular ATP through Cx43 hemichannels.

Corneal Endothelium in Penetrating Keratoplasty

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Ophthalmology, 1986
Specular microscopy of endothelium after corneal transplantation has often shown a sharp reduction in its number density immediately after surgery and long-term cell loss during the next three to four years in addition to continuous morphologic changes. We examined flat preparations of the endothelium of three corneal buttons removed three weeks, eight

Targeting neutrophil extracellular traps in metabolic and immune niche: Nanomaterials for diabetes tissue regeneration

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
The effects of NETs on regeneration of various diabetic tissues, and strategies targeting NETs for diabetes tissue regeneration. In the diabetic environment, NETs undergo complex metabolic and immune reprogramming, leading to dynamic changes in antibacterial and proinflammatory functions, and affecting regeneration of multiple systemic tissues.

Alogliptin Reduces Oxidative Stress in Cardiomyocytes and Ameliorates Diabetic Cardiomyopathy via the AURKB/NLGN2 Signaling

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a common complication of diabetes mellitus. This study investigated the effects of alogliptin on DCM and its underlying mechanisms. A DCM model was constructed and treated with alogliptin. Downstream targets of alogliptin were screened using bioinformatics analysis.

Analysis of best corrected visual acuity following corneal refractive surgery comparing low and standard predicted postoperative keratometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BACKGROUND: It is a commonly held view in the ophthalmologic community that eyes with sufficiently low calculated postoperative corneal keratometry, less than 35 diopters, should not undergo corrective refractive laser surgery (CRLS) due to the increased

Extracellular Vesicle‐Mediated Communication Between Anterior Cruciate Ligament and Bone Marrow Cells Modulates Hamstring Tenocyte Behavior and Apoptosis

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Following anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, enhancing hamstring tenocyte activity and minimizing apoptosis are critical for preventing graft failure and promoting ligamentization. This study investigated the therapeutic potential of extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from a coculture of ACL remnant cells and bone marrow ...
