The Relationship between Complements and Age-Related Macular Degeneration and Its Pathogenesis

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmology
Age-related macular degeneration is a retinal disease that causes permanent loss of central vision in people over the age of 65. Its pathogenesis may be related to mitochondrial dysfunction, inflammation, apoptosis, autophagy, complement, intestinal ...

Myofibroblasts in macular fibrosis secondary to neovascular age-related macular degeneration - the potential sources and molecular cues for their recruitment and activation

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2018
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of blindness in the elderly in developed countries. Neovascular AMD (nAMD) accounts for 90% of AMD-related vision loss.

Audio‐guided exercise at home: Preliminary findings from a pilot study on physical activity for people with low vision

open access: yesPM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background: Individuals with severe visual impairments frequently refrain from regular physical activity due to multiple barriers, including transportation difficulties, financial constraints, and limited availability of exercise programs tailored to their needs. These factors often contribute to a gradual decline in mobility and independence.

Development and adoption of Kernza—A perennial grain crop for sustainable agriculture

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Annual cereal grains account for ~50% of human food calories, but cultivation of these crops has resulted in major environmental and social issues worldwide. For nearly three decades, researchers have been breeding intermediate wheatgrass—a perennial cool‐season grass—to serve as the world's first commercial‐scale perennial grain crop to improve ...

A flexible arched artificial photoreceptor constructed by photodeformable liquid crystal polymers and its application in vision restoration

open access: yesSmart Molecules, EarlyView.
A flexible arched artificial photoreceptor with high stability and biocompatibility was fabricated by integrating liquid crystal polymers with polyvinylidene fluoride‐trifluoroethylene. This device exhibits robust photoelectric responses under low‐intensity illumination and demonstrates efficacy in restoring visual responses in blind rats following ...

Impact of obesity with impaired glucose tolerance on retinal degeneration in a rat model of metabolic syndrome. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
PurposeMetabolic syndrome (MetS) is associated with several degenerative diseases, including retinal degeneration. Previously, we reported on progressive retinal degeneration in a spontaneous obese rat (WNIN/Ob) model.

Bidirectional Associations Between Seborrheic Dermatitis and Epithelial Barrier Diseases: A Retrospective Cohort Study

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
This study explores the bidirectional associations between SD and EBDs in a cohort of 5,083,689 individuals in a US administrative claims database. Positive bidirectional associations were found between SD and many EBDs of the skin, respiratory, gastrointestinal, and ocular surfaces. Our results support the EBT as a shared driver of EBD pathogenesis at
