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

The Journal of Pathology, Volume 269, Issue 2, Page 182-196, June 2026.
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 ...

Unmasking of subclinical keratoconus with Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty in Fuchs endothelial dystrophy

Taiwan Journal of Ophthalmology, 2023
We report a case of Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) with concurrent forme fruste keratoconus (KCN) that was unmasked with Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) in the right eye, but not with Descemet-stripping automated endothelial

Exploring the histopathological signature of repeat‐mediated Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy

Acta Ophthalmologica, Volume 104, Issue 3, Page 333-341, May 2026.
Abstract Purpose To determine the histological differences between Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) cases with and without the most common genetic risk factor, expansion of a CTG repeat (CTG18.1) within the TCF4 gene. Methods Formalin‐fixed paraffin‐embedded corneal tissues were compared retrospectively, and CTG18.1 status was determined from

Generation of a Novel Col8a2P2A‐CreERT2 Mouse Line Enables Targeted Genetic Manipulation of Corneal Endothelial Cells and Modeling of Endothelial Decompensation

genesis, Volume 64, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The corneal endothelium is a monolayer of specialized cells that maintains stromal deturgescence and transparency, functions essential for vision. Despite its clinical importance, the developmental origins and homeostatic programs of the endothelium remain poorly understood, in part due to the lack of a lineage‐specific genetic driver.
