Self‐Propelled HPB@Lip@AB Nanomotors Ameliorate Dry Eye Disease
A self‐propelled HPB@Lip@AB nanomotor system is developed for dry eye disease (DED) therapy, facilitating rapid penetration across ocular surface barriers while integrating hydrogen therapy with multi‐enzyme‐like antioxidant activity. The nanoplatform restores mitochondrial function, suppresses oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis, and ...

Combined high‐glucose and hypoxic stress switches microglia into a TSPAN4‐dependent migrasome‐producing state. These migrasomes deliver pro‐angiogenic signals to endothelial cells, activating HIF‐1α/VEGF signaling, disrupting vascular junctions, and fueling pathological neovascularization. This work uncovers migrasome‐mediated immune‐vascular crosstalk

Lactate Signal: Modulator of Cellular Energy Production and Anabolism
Compartmentalized lactate signaling provides a spatial framework for understanding how lactate‐rich states are generated, transported, sensed, and translated into biological outputs. This Review integrates extracellular, cytosolic, mitochondrial‐associated, and nuclear lactate mechanisms to explain how lactate shapes metabolic adaptation, immune ...

Grading diabetic retinopathy (DR) using the Scottish grading protocol
Although traditionally the features of DR have been identified through direct ophthalmoscopy or slit lamp biomicroscopy, digital photography is more sensitive than direct ophthalmoscopy and is comparable to slit lamp examination by a trained observer.

Injectable Peptide‐Based Functional Amyloid Hydrogels as Tunable Depots for Sustained Drug Delivery
An injectable and tunable peptide‐based functional amyloid hydrogel provides sustained insulin release while preserving insulin stability and bioactivity. The hydrogel enables prolonged glycemic regulation in vivo, exhibits excellent biocompatibility, and shows no detectable IAPP and α‐Syn heterologous cross‐seeding, highlighting its potential as a ...

Chinese Expert Consensus on the Clinical Application of Finerenone in Geriatric Comorbidities
Mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) overactivation drives inflammation, oxidative stress, and fibrosis in the heart, kidneys, and vasculature, leading to cardiorenal dysfunction. MR signaling promotes hypertrophy, remodeling, and injury through pathways like oxidative stress and inflammation, resulting in vascular stiffness and progressive organ damage ...

Cost–benefit analysis of screening programme for diabetic retinopathy in Bulgaria
Aims Late‐diagnosed diabetic retinopathy (DR) is difficult and expensive to treat. Screening programmes can identify the disease early and reduce the costs of its future treatment. This study aims to analyse the cost–benefit of screening programmes for DR.

Systemic Diseases and the Eye: A Translational Perspective on Diabetes
The eye–brain–cardiometabolic axis in diabetes: retinal biomarkers as indicators of systemic disease. ABSTRACT Diabetes mellitus is a global chronic disease that affects the whole body and not just glucose metabolism. In diabetes, non‐invasive ocular changes can help understand microvascular, neurodegenerative, and inflammatory processes. This analysis
