Phospholipids in Meibomian Gland Secretion
Ophthalmic Research, 2009 The bulk of the lipid layer overlying the aqueous portion of the precorneal tear film is composed of polar and nonpolar components. The nonpolar lipids have been the subject of numerous studies; however, the polar lipids have remained relatively uncharacterized.

Substrate for Thyroid Hormone Synthesis: Biochemistry, Evolution, and Physiology
The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 8, 30 April 2026.Two proposed sequence of events for thyroxine formation in patients expressing mutant thyroglobulin. (A) (1) TSH stimulation drives expression of misfolded TG. (2) Unremitting ER stress. (3) Stress‐induced cell death. (4) Dead thyrocytes release their contents. (5) The contents become iodinated. (6) Forming thyroxine.

American Journal of Human Biology, Volume 38, Issue 4, April 2026.ABSTRACT Objectives The pronounced female preponderance in Sjögren's syndrome (SS) points to a potential role for sex hormones in disease development. The ratio of the second to fourth digit (2D:4D), which serves as an indirect marker of fetal androgen exposure, has shown associations with several immune‐mediated conditions.

Meibomian gland dysfunction. III. Meibomian gland lipids.
Investigative ophthalmology & visual science, 1989 The lipid components of meibomian gland excreta were evaluated in rabbits after they received 2% topical epinephrine dropped into their eyes daily for a period of 6 months to a year to induce meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). Changes were compared to excreta obtained from seven age-matched, untreated control rabbits.

Textural analysis in meibomian gland image
, 2018 Meibomian gland is one of the anatomical eye structures to provide oily lipid layer to the anterior part of the eye. Textural analysis by using Mean Histogram Method was proposed as a method of estimating area of Meibomian Gland Loss (MGL).
