Tips, Tricks, and Guides in Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty Learning Curve
Lamellar keratoplasty is fast becoming the most popular form of corneal transplantation. The adoption of Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) in the management of Fuchs endothelial dystrophy and pseudophakic bullous keratopathy is partly ...

H. pylori infection is a major cause of stomach cancer, but its effect on immune cells in tumors is unclear. Using single‐cell sequencing, we mapped the stomach tumor environment and discovered a specific exhausted T‐cell subtype, marked by the FYB1 gene, that is abundant in H. pylori‐positive tumors and linked to patient prognosis. Our findings reveal

Telomerase Immortalization of Human Corneal Endothelial Cells Yields Functional Hexagonal Monolayers [PDF]
Human corneal endothelial cells (HCEnCs) form a monolayer of hexagonal cells whose main function is to maintain corneal clarity by regulating corneal hydration. HCEnCs are derived from neural crest and are arrested in the post-mitotic state.

Directional Posterior Corneal Profile Changes in Fuchs' Endothelial Corneal Dystrophy
To determine directional changes in peripheral corneal thickness and corneal astigmatism over a range of severity of Fuchs' endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD).Eyes with FECD were categorized as mild, moderate, or advanced according to the area and confluence of guttae and the presence of clinical edema.

Immunohistochemical Profiling of Corneas With Fuchs Endothelial Corneal Dystrophy [PDF]
Purpose: Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) is the leading indication for endothelial keratoplasty. Further insight into its pathophysiology is needed to develop alternative therapies. Methods: Sixteen genes from a previous microarray expression experiment (FECD vs.
