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 ...

Mesothelial cells: A cellular surrogate for tissue engineering of corneal endothelium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
[Purpose]: To evaluate whether mouse adipose tissue mesothelial cells (ATMCs) share morphologic and biochemical characteristics with mouse corneal endothelial cells (CECs) and to evaluate their capacity to adhere to the decellularized basal membrane of ...

Uncovering the role of genetic polymorphisms in cervical insufficiency

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Pathways and genes implicated in CI pathogenesis. Abstract Cervical insufficiency (CI) is characterized by spontaneous dilation of the cervix in the absence of painful uterine contractions in the mid‐trimester, leading to premature delivery. It is responsible for up to 20% of second trimester pregnancy losses, mostly <24 weeks.

Characterization of Human Transition Zone Reveals a Putative Progenitor-Enriched Niche of Corneal Endothelium

open access: yesCells, 2019
The corneal endothelium regulates corneal hydration to maintain the transparency of cornea. Lacking regenerative capacity, corneal endothelial cell loss due to aging and diseases can lead to corneal edema and vision loss.

Non‐invasive and efficient diabetic retinal mitochondrial repair nanoplatform based on engineered endothelial mitochondrial‐derived vesicles with dynamic integrated stress response modulation

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Under hyperglycemic conditions, mitochondrial dysfunction in retinal endothelial cells triggers excessive reactive oxygen species/reactive nitrogen species production, barrier protein degradation, and endothelial barrier breakdown in diabetic retinopathy.

Tissue engineered corneal endothelium transplantation in an ex vivo human cornea organ culture model

open access: yesScientific Reports
Transplantation of corneal tissue is the standard treatment for irreversible corneal endothelium decompensation by replacing the malfunctioning corneal endothelial cells and Descemet’s membrane.

Effects of intracameral brilliant blue on the corneal endothelium of swine: in vitro study

open access: yesPesquisa Veterinária Brasileira
: The aim was to investigate the ultrastructural changes in the corneal endothelium of pigs induced by intracameral 0.05% brilliant blue. Twenty swine corneas were separated into two groups, the right eye bulbs (control group) and the left eye bulbs ...

Analysis of best corrected visual acuity following corneal refractive surgery comparing low and standard predicted postoperative keratometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BACKGROUND: It is a commonly held view in the ophthalmologic community that eyes with sufficiently low calculated postoperative corneal keratometry, less than 35 diopters, should not undergo corrective refractive laser surgery (CRLS) due to the increased

Alogliptin Reduces Oxidative Stress in Cardiomyocytes and Ameliorates Diabetic Cardiomyopathy via the AURKB/NLGN2 Signaling

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a common complication of diabetes mellitus. This study investigated the effects of alogliptin on DCM and its underlying mechanisms. A DCM model was constructed and treated with alogliptin. Downstream targets of alogliptin were screened using bioinformatics analysis.

Efeito da posição do bisel da caneta de facoemulsificação no endotélio corneano [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Purpose: To compare the extent of corneal endothelial (CE) cell loss changes in two groups of eyes submitted to phacoemulsification, with the conventional bevel-up tip position in one eye and with the bevel-down tip position in the fellow eye.
