Inositol pyrophosphate kinases in health and disease

FEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 17, Page 2379-2396, September 2026.
In mammalian cells, IP6Ks and PPIP5Ks are the key kinases synthesizing the inositol pyrophosphates 5PP‐InsP5 and InsP8. They are essential for early development but also mediate age‐related diseases, including metabolic disorders, cardiovascular diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, and cancers.

Epikeratophakia for keratoconus [PDF]

Eye, 1990
Results of the author's first 15 cases of epikeratophakia for keratoconus are presented. All patients were intolerant of contact lens correction and could not achieve satisfactory acuity with spectacle correction due to corneal ectasia and irregular astigmatism. The average follow-up was 13 months.

Three phosphatase families form a community: The phosphohydrolases that act upon inositol pyrophosphates

FEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 17, Page 2579-2614, September 2026.
Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

One‐Year Results of Accelerated Transepithelial Corneal Cross‐Linking for Progressive Keratoconus: A Prospective Interventional Study

Eye &ENT Research, Volume 3, Issue 3, Page 168-174, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Keratoconus is a progressive corneal ectatic disorder. Accelerated transepithelial corneal cross‐linking (ATE‐CXL) aims to halt progression while preserving the epithelium, but evidence on its 12‐month efficacy requires further evaluation.
