Astigmatic changes after Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) in decompensated penetrating keratoplasty grafts

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the surgery‐induced changes of astigmatism after Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) in eyes with failed previous penetrating keratoplasty (PK). Design Retrospective, interventional cohort study based on prospective DMEK database.

SLC4A11 mutations in Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy [PDF]

Human Molecular Genetics, 2007
The endothelial (posterior) corneal dystrophies, which result from primary endothelial dysfunction, include Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD), posterior polymorphous corneal dystrophy (PPCD) and congenital hereditary endothelial dystrophy (CHED).

Corneal clearance and central endothelial cell repopulation despite graft detachment after Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty

GMS Ophthalmology Cases, 2019
Objective: Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) is the gold standard procedure for treatment of primary corneal endothelial disorders. Graft detachment is a frequent complication of DMEK, which often requires re-operation or re-bubbling ...

High‐Purity Functional Corneal Endothelial Cells From Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells via a Novel Wash‐Out Method

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
iPSC‐derived corneal endothelial cells purified via a novel wash‐out method show high functional fidelity, resemble primary CECs, and restore corneal clarity in vivo, offering a scalable alternative to donor transplantation. ABSTRACT Corneal endothelial failure can cause blindness, with transplantation as the only treatment.

Cornea organoids from human induced pluripotent stem cells. [PDF]

, 2017
The cornea is the transparent outermost surface of the eye, consisting of a stratified epithelium, a collagenous stroma and an innermost single-cell layered endothelium and providing 2/3 of the refractive power of the eye. Multiple diseases of the cornea

Personalized Models of Biological Barriers and Their Diseases: Recent Progress with Organs‐On‐Chips

Advanced Biology, Volume 10, Issue 2, February 2026.
Buck and Bugter et al. explore the architectural diversity and physiological functions of human barrier systems and reveal how organ‐on‐chip platforms, particularly those integrating patient‐derived cells, are advancing barrier disease modeling. They highlight how emerging biological and technological advances can be used to bridge the gap between ...

Update on the genetics of corneal endothelial dystrophies

Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2022
Corneal endothelial dystrophies are a heterogeneous group of diseases with different modes of inheritance and genetic basis for each dystrophy. The genes associated with these diseases encode transcription factors, structural components of the stroma and

Single‐cell RNA sequencing revealed the T‐cell heterogeneity and exhaustion subsets of Helicobacter pylori‐induced gastritis‐to‐cancer transformation

VIEW, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.
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
