Corneal stromal demarcation line after collagen cross-linking in corneal ectatic diseases: a review of the literature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Collagen cross-linking (CXL) is a relatively new conservative approach for progressive corneal ectasia, which is able to strengthen corneal tissue reforming new covalent bonds.

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 ...

Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy: Molecular Staging, Risk Factors, Therapeutics, and Emerging Trends

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
The heterogeneous landscape of DPN can be unified through a tripartite pathogenic model encompassing progressive stages of metabolic dysregulation, chronic inflammation, and overt neuronal damage. Within this framework, six clinical subtypes were identified, namely, hyperglycemia‐driven, dyslipidemia‐driven, inflammation‐driven, dysvascularity‐driven ...

Effects of Laser In Situ Keratomileusis on the Corneal Endothelium

open access: yesKaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2005
The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) on the corneal endothelium. In a prospective study, the corneal endothelium of 87 eyes (45 patients) was examined before and 1 month after LASIK.

Next generation tyrosine-mutant AAV8 shows high mouse corneal endothelial transduction in vivo [abstract] [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Purpose: Recently, point mutations in surface-exposed tyrosine residues have been shown to increase AAV transduction significantly. We examined the efficacy of conventional AAV8 and next generation tyrosine-mutant AAV8 vectors to deliver genes into ...

The Immunological Basis of Dry Eye Disease and Current Topical Treatment Options. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Homeostasis of the lacrimal functional unit is needed to ensure a well-regulated ocular immune response comprising innate and adaptive phases. When the ocular immune system is excessively stimulated and/or immunoregulatory mechanisms are disrupted, the ...

Biodegradable Natural Polymer‐Based Drug Delivery Systems for Bone Tissue Engineering

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The increasing incidence of bone diseases and injuries, especially among aging populations, has underscored the shortcomings of traditional treatments such as bone grafts and metal implants, which often face complications including immune rejection, mechanical failure, and delayed healing.

Regulation of Oxidative Stress in Corneal Endothelial Cells by Prdx6

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2018
The inner layer of the cornea, the corneal endothelium, is post-mitotic and unable to regenerate if damaged. The corneal endothelium is one of the most transplanted tissues in the body.

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.
