Research progress on the pathogenesis of Graves’ ophthalmopathy: Based on immunity, noncoding RNA and exosomes

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
Graves’ ophthalmopathy (GO), also known as thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy, is a common potentially vision-threatening organ-specific autoimmune disease and the most common extrathyroidal manifestation of Graves’ disease.

Early Low‐Dose Rituximab for Mild‐to‐Moderate Thyroid Eye Disease: A Preliminary Evaluation of Efficacy and Safety

International Journal of Endocrinology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Thyroid eye disease (TED) is an autoimmune inflammatory condition linked to thyroid dysfunction, which can result in disfigurement and potential vision loss. Recently, immunomodulatory therapies such as rituximab have demonstrated potential benefit in managing TED.

Factors Influencing the Conversion of Ocular Myasthenia Gravis to Generalized Myasthenia Gravis: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Journal of Ophthalmology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Purpose The conversion rate of ocular myasthenia gravis (OMG) to generalized myasthenia gravis (GMG) lacks definitive predictors. Methods This retrospective cohort study analyzed data collected at Siriraj Hospital between January 2007 and December 2019 to identify factors influencing OMG generalization and the time to conversion. The records of 200 OMG

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

Advanced 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 ...

Progress in the pathogenesis of thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy and new drug development

Taiwan Journal of Ophthalmology, 2020
Thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) is the most common extrathyroidal manifestation of toxic diffuse goiter (Graves' disease), also known as Graves' ophthalmopathy/orbitopathy. As an organ-specific autoimmune disease, the pathogenesis of TAO is still

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

CNS 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.

Immunological Aspects of Graves’ Ophthalmopathy [PDF]

BioMed Research International, 2019
The body’s autoimmune process is involved in the development of Graves’ disease (GD), which is manifested by an overactive thyroid gland. In some patients, autoreactive inflammatory reactions contribute to the development of symptoms such as thyroid ophthalmopathy, and the subsequent signs and symptoms are derived from the expansion of orbital adipose ...

Pulse dexamethasone therapy versus pulse methylprednisolone therapy for treatment of Graves′s ophthalmopathy

Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2013
Pulse methylprednisolone therapy is the recommended therapy for moderate to severe and active ophthalmopathy, but high dose pulse methylprednisolone therapy is marred by the chances of fulminant hepatic failure and the high cost of therapy. Dexamethasone
