Clearing the AIR: A PRPH2 mutation identified in the evaluation of presumed autoimmune retinopathy

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Ophthalmology Case Reports
Purpose: To detail the identification of a likely pathogenic variant in PRPH2 in a daughter-father duo, highlighting the diagnostic challenges in differentiating nonparaneoplastic autoimmune retinopathy (npAIR) from inherited retinal degeneration (IRD ...

Evidence for glutamate-mediated excitotoxic mechanisms during photoreceptor degeneration in the rd1 mouse retina [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
PURPOSE: Kinetic studies of photoreceptor cell death in the retinal degeneration (rd1) mouse model suggest that photoreceptor degeneration could result from cumulative damage.

Novel rodent models for macular research [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
BACKGROUND: Many disabling human retinal disorders involve the central retina, particularly the macula. However, the commonly used rodent models in research, mouse and rat, do not possess a macula.

MOGAD Is the Most Common Cause of Isolated Optic Neuritis in Children

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives The study aimed to characterize the clinical features, etiologies, and outcomes of isolated, first‐time pediatric ON in the post‐MOG‐IgG era. Methods This was a single‐center retrospective cohort study at Texas Children's Hospital of patients diagnosed with first‐time ON between 2018–2024, with follow‐up data collected through 2025.

Damage-associated molecular pattern recognition is required for induction of retinal neuroprotective pathways in a sex-dependent manner

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Retinal degeneration is a common cause of irreversible blindness and is caused by the death of retinal light-sensitive neurons called photoreceptors.

3D‐Printed Corneal Substitutes: Materials, Fabrication, and Preclinical Progress

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Successful clinical translation of 3D‐printed corneal substitutes relies on the interplay between the bioink properties, cellular component, and the fabrication process. These factors influence the critical properties of the construct, including optical transparency, mechanical stability, suture retention, that ultimately govern long‐term stromal ...

Selective Histone Deacetylase 6 Inhibitors Restore Cone Photoreceptor Vision or Outer Segment Morphology in Zebrafish and Mouse Models of Retinal Blindness

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Blindness arising from retinal or macular degeneration results in significant social, health and economic burden. While approved treatments exist for neovascular (‘wet’) age-related macular degeneration, new therapeutic targets/interventions are needed ...

Biological effects of cigarette smoke in cultured human retinal pigment epithelial cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The goal of the present study was to determine whether treatment with cigarette smoke extract (CSE) induces cell loss, cellular senescence, and extracellular matrix (ECM) synthesis in primary human retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells. Primary cultured

The roles of microglia in neural remodeling during retinal degeneration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Retina remodeling is a consequence of many retinal degenerative diseases that are characterized by progressive photoreceptor death. Retina remodeling involves a series of complex pathological processes, consisting of photoreceptor degeneration and ...
