Short‐Chain Fatty Acids: Microbial Metabolites Driving Gut‐Eye Axis Signaling
Comprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 5, October 2026.Short‐chain fatty acids generated by gut microbial fermentation link diet to ocular physiology via the gut–eye axis. Through systemic distribution, these metabolites regulate GPCR signaling, epigenetic pathways, inflammation, and angiogenesis, shaping retinal homeostasis and highlighting therapeutic potential in ocular vascular and inflammatory ...

Study of a Frugal Design Picosecond Laser System for Laser‐Assisted Corneal Surgery
Journal of Biophotonics, Volume 19, Issue 10, October 2026.Stromal surface after extraction of the lamella cut with the studied frugal picosecond laser source. ABSTRACT Femtosecond lasers have long been the gold standard for corneal laser‐assisted surgery, but their high cost limits widespread use. This study challenges their supremacy by investigating a cost‐effective alternative: a frugal all‐fiber ...

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2026.Our study reveals a novel mechanism by which MSC‐derived EVs alleviate NaIO3‐induced dry AMD‐like pathology. MSC‐EVs deliver miR‐486‐3p into retinal cells to directly inhibit the ferroptosis‐promoting target gene Lcn2. Concurrently, downregulated Lcn2 restores intracellular Gpx4 expression, thereby suppressing ferroptosis and rescuing retinal ...

Development of neural crest cells: and contribution to corneal endothelium
Neural crest cells are an early embryonic cell population characterised by their multipotency and high migratory capacity. In addition to contributing to various facial and bodily tissues, including bone and cartilage, neural crest cells play a key role ...
