Birefringent properties of the human cornea in vivo : towards a new model of corneal structure [PDF]

open access: yes
The fundamental corneal properties of mechanical rigidity, maintenance of curvature and optical transparency result from the specific organisation of collagen fibrils in the corneal stroma. The exact arrangement of stromal collagen is currently unknown

The Expression and Distribution of MUC1 in Human Corneal Epithelium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Corneal and conjunctival squamous epithelial cells have been known to express the mucin MUC1. We attempted to reveal the expression and localizational characteristics of the membrane-spanning mucin MUC1 as a component of the mucous layer in the human ...

Stem Cell‐Based Approaches for Neurotrophic Keratopathy: From Ocular Surface to Neuro‐Ophthalmology

open access: yesSensory Neuroscience, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neurotrophic keratopathy is an uncommon, but potentially sight‐threatening, corneal disorder that results from impaired trigeminal sensory innervation. The loss of corneal sensation disrupts epithelial stability, weakens wound healing, and may lead to persistent epithelial defects, stromal ulceration, and, in the most advanced cases, corneal ...

Oral non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs do not delay corneal healing in dogs with spontaneous chronic corneal epithelial defects: A retrospective cohort of 186 ulcers

open access: yesVeterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Oral non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly used for analgesia in dogs with spontaneous chronic corneal epithelial defects (SCCEDs). Topical NSAIDs can delay epithelialisation and promote stromal melting, but the safety of systemic NSAIDs in SCCEDs is unknown.

Plant‐derived nanovesicles as potential drug delivery systems for topical use: Emerging applications in dermatology and cosmetology

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Plant‐derived nanovesicles (PDNVs) are naturally secreted by fruit, vegetables, seeds, leaves and other natural sources. Used as drug delivery systems, they can combine intrinsic therapeutic activity, enhanced skin permeation and cargo‐carrying capacity, suitable for dermatological and cosmetic applications including hydration, antioxidant/anti ...

Tyrosine phosphorylation in desmosomes and hemidesmosomes of the corneal epithelium.

open access: yes, 1996
We examined the localization of phosphotyrosine (p-Tyr)-modified proteins in the normal corneal epithelium using affinity-purified rabbit anti-p-Tyr antibody.

HSPE1 deficiency underlies the crosstalk between metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease and age‐related macular degeneration

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Rare‐earth ions act as multifunctional modifiers in perovskite solar cells by improving charge transport, suppressing oxygen vacancies, passivating defects, promoting grain growth, and enabling redox‐mediated stabilization. In addition, RE‐doped layers can expand spectral utilization through upconversion and downconversion, thereby enhancing light ...

The Role of Insulin-like Growth Factor (IGF) System in the Corneal Epithelium Homeostasis—From Limbal Epithelial Stem Cells to Therapeutic Applications

open access: yesBiology
The corneal epithelium, comprising three layers of cells, represents the outermost portion of the eye and functions as a vital protective barrier while concurrently serving as a critical refractive structure.

Benzalkonium Chloride in Eye Drops Causing Allergic Contact Dermatitis: A Case Series

open access: yesAustralasian Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present three patients who developed allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) from benzalkonium chloride (BAK) in ophthalmic drops. BAK is a preservative commonly found in ophthalmic formulations and there is a rising trend of ACD to this allergen. The irritant and sensitising properties of BAK on the ocular mucosa will be discussed.
