Formulation and evaluation of ophthalmic microemulsion for enhanced topical administration of brinzolamide

open access: yesFrontiers in Materials
Microemulsions (μEs) are more effective than conventional formulations for ophthalmic use due to their optical transparency, thermodynamic stability, structural flexibility and higher bioavailability.

Awareness of treatment: a source of bias in subjective grading of ocular complications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Purpose: Bias has been described as one important obstacle in scientific research. The aim of this study was to explore “awareness of treatment” as a possible source of bias in subjective grading of ocular complications.

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

High expression of PD-1 and PD-L1 in ocular adnexal sebaceous carcinoma

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2018
Ocular adnexal sebaceous carcinoma (OASC) is an aggressive malignancy that frequently recurs locally and metastasizes. Surgical extirpation may produce significant aesthetic morbidity, and effective systemic therapies for locally advanced or metastatic ...

Bilateral keratoprostheses in a patient with ocular mucous membrane pemphigoid. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Mucous membrane pemphigoid (MMP) with ocular involvement, also referred to as ocular cicatricial pemphigoid, is a rare, autoimmune blistering disease that can have devastating effects for patients.

Understanding visual map formation through vortex dynamics of spin Hamiltonian models

open access: yes, 2003
The pattern formation in orientation and ocular dominance columns is one of the most investigated problems in the brain. From a known cortical structure, we build spin-like Hamiltonian models with long-range interactions of the Mexican hat type.

Microorganisms and Common Ophthalmic Diseases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The human eye is in constant contact to environmental conditions that increase its likelihood in being exposed to a multitude of pathogens. Studies have revealed that the normal microbial flora found around the ocular area contribute to the well-being of

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Role of Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 (HSV-1) Glycoprotein K (gK) Pathogenic CD8+ T Cells in Exacerbation of Eye Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
HSV-1-induced corneal scarring (CS), also broadly referred to as Herpes Stromal Keratitis (HSK), is the leading cause of infectious blindness in developed countries. It is well-established that HSK is in fact an immunopathological disease.
