Secondary glaucoma: Toward interventions based on molecular underpinnings

WIREs Mechanisms of Disease, Volume 16, Issue 1, January/February 2024.
Proposed effects of melatonin on anterior segment cells. Melatonin is a potent melanogenesis suppressor acting by inhibiting α‐MSH effects. As a result, melanin‐containing granules aggregate around the nucleus. Melatonin is a potent antioxidant capable of scavenging ROS/RNS generated by UV radiation (UV‐R).

Results of XEN45 Gel Stent Implantation in the Treatment of Primary Open‐Angle Glaucoma Using 5, 10 or 20 μg Mitomycin C: A Pilot Study

Journal of Ophthalmology, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Background: No consensus has been reached on the adequate dose of mitomycin C (MMC) in XEN45 gel stent implantation. Lower doses have the potential to reduce MMC‐linked side effects. This study aimed to evaluate treatment efficacy of ab interno XEN45 gel stent in primary open‐angle glaucoma (POAG) with three different MMC doses.
