Association between G protein polymorphisms (GNAS1 T393C and GNB3 C825T) and course of Graves’ disease and Graves’ orbitopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Summary The biology of initiation and progression of Graves’ hyperthyroidism and Graves’ orbitopathy is complex. For the individually tailored therapy of the diseases it is very important to identify the risk factors.

Building the case for insulin-like growth factor receptor-I involvement in thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The pathogenesis of orbital Graves' disease (GD), a process known as thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO), remains incompletely understood. The thyrotropin receptor (TSHR) represents the central autoantigen involved in GD and has been proposed as the ...

PDGFRα+DPP4+ Fibroblasts‐Macrophage Crosstalk Induces Orbital Fibrosis in Treatment‐Resistant Thyroid Eye Disease via the GAS6‐AXL Pathway

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 45, December 4, 2025.
This study elucidates macrophage‐induced orbital fibrosis in TED via the GAS6‐AXL pathway, a treatment‐resistant disorder lacking non‐surgical therapies. Using a novel patient cell‐derived orthotopic animal model of orbital fibrosis for TED, we repurpose an existing fibrosis therapy, addressing the absence of stable models and offering a potential ...

Graves′ orbitopathy: Management of difficult cases

open access: yesIndian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2012
Management of Graves′ ophthalmopathy (GO) is based on three pillars: to stop smoking, to restore and maintain euthyroidism, and to treat the eye changes according to severity and activity of GO.

Orbital pseudotumour masquerading as Wegener’s granulomatosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A twenty-two year old female patient presented with new onset bilateral hard orbital masses and progressively worse tear lake problems. Computed tomography of the orbits revealed poorly differentiated bilateral orbital masses.

Tear fluid biomarkers in ocular and systemic disease: potential use for predictive, preventive and personalised medicine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In the field of predictive, preventive and personalised medicine, researchers are keen to identify novel and reliable ways to predict and diagnose disease, as well as to monitor patient response to therapeutic agents.

Application of Machine Learning to Discriminate Photoreceptor Cell Species in Xenotransplanted Chimeric Retinas

open access: yesClinical and Translational Science, Volume 18, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Photoreceptor transplantation is being studied to restore visual function in retinal diseases causing blindness, including age‐related macular degeneration, hereditary eye diseases, and traumatic retinopathy. Preclinical studies often involve delivering exogenous human photoreceptor cells into animal models' retinas.

Selenium improves mild Graves’Orbitopathy: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background Free oxygen radicals and cytokines play a pathogenic role in Graves’ orbitopathy (GO). This study reports the results of a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial on the effect of selenium, an antioxidant agent, or pentoxifylline ...

Extra-ocular muscle MRI in genetically-defined mitochondrial disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Conventional and quantitative MRI was performed in patients with chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia (CPEO), a common manifestation of mitochondrial disease, to characterise MRI findings in the extra-ocular muscles (EOMs) and investigate whether

Glymphatic System Dysfunction in Thyroid‐Associated Ophthalmopathy: A Multimodal MRI Study

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 31, Issue 11, November 2025.
TAO patients exhibit impaired glymphatic function, with reduced DTI‐ALPS indices and gBOLD‐CSF coupling, but unchanged choroid plexus volume. These alterations correlate with neuropsychological symptoms and sleep disturbances. Restoring glymphatic activity may offer a therapeutic approach to enhance patient outcomes.
