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.

High‐Purity Functional Corneal Endothelial Cells From Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells via a Novel Wash‐Out Method

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
iPSC‐derived corneal endothelial cells purified via a novel wash‐out method show high functional fidelity, resemble primary CECs, and restore corneal clarity in vivo, offering a scalable alternative to donor transplantation. ABSTRACT Corneal endothelial failure can cause blindness, with transplantation as the only treatment.
