Differences in macular pigment optical density across four ethnicities: a comparative study

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Ophthalmology, 2020
Objective: The aim of this study is to compare macular pigment optical density levels across four different ethnicities and study its influence on ganglion cell layer and retinal nerve fibre layer thickness across these ethnicities.

Adamts10 controls transforming growth factor β family signaling that contributes to retinal ganglion cell development

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022
Although mutations in ADAMTS10 have long been known to cause autosomal recessive Weill-Marchesani Syndrome which is characterized by short stature and ocular abnormalities, more recent work has shown that certain mutations in ADAMTS10 cause glaucoma in ...

Repeatability of Perimacular Ganglion Cell Complex Analysis with Spectral-Domain Optical Coherence Tomography

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmology, 2015
Purpose. To assess the repeatability of spectral-domain optical coherence tomography to measure macular and perimacular ganglion cell complex thicknesses and compare retinal ganglion cell parameters between algorithms. Methods. Ninety-two nonglaucomatous

Suppressed retinal degeneration in aged wild type and APPswe/PS1ΔE9 mice by bone marrow transplantation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is an age-related condition characterized by accumulation of neurotoxic amyloid β peptides (Aβ) in brain and retina. Because bone marrow transplantation (BMT) results in decreased cerebral Aβ in experimental AD, we hypothesized ...

Neuronal Nitric Oxide Synthase Is Crucial for Ganglion Cell Death in Rat Retinal Explant Cultures

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2004
We examined possible involvement of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) on ganglion cell death in explant cultures of neonatal rat retina. Survival of retinal ganglion cells was significantly prolonged by a broad-spectrum NOS inhibitor Nω-nitro-L-arginine ...

Macula, choroid and retinal nerve fiber layer optical coherence tomography biomarkers in liver dysfunction

open access: yesTürk Biyokimya Dergisi, 2022
We aimed on evaluating the effect of liver dysfunction on retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL), GCL++ (ganglion cell layer + RNFL + inner plexiform layer), central macular thickness (CMT) and subfoveal choroidal thickness (CT) measurements.

Amyloid-Beta Peptide Is Toxic to Neurons In Vivo via Indirect Mechanisms

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2002
We have studied the neurotoxicity of amyloid-beta (Aβ) after a single unilateral intravitreal injection. Within the retina apoptotic cells were seen throughout the photoreceptor layer and the inner nuclear layer but not in the ganglion cell layer at 48 h

Cirrhosis-induced morphological changes in the retina:possible role of endogenous opioid [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Ophthalmology, 2015
AIM:To investigate the impact of cirrhosis on retinal morphology and to evaluate the role of endogenous opioids as a mediator in cirrhosis induced retinal change.METHODS:Thirty-six male rats were divided into 3 main groups; the common bile duct ligated ...

Comparison of optical coherence tomography measurements between high hyperopic and low hyperopic children

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Ophthalmology, 2020
Purpose: To identify the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer, total macular, ganglion cell layer, and inner plexiform layer thicknesses in children with high hyperopia using spectral domain optical coherence tomography.
