Correlation of Corneoscleral Membrane Biomechanical Properties and Eye Morphometric Parameters in Patients with Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma

open access: yesOftalʹmologiâ, 2019
Purpose: to study a correlation between morphometric parameters of the eye and tonometry data, taking into account viscoelastic properties of the cornea in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), as well as in practically healthy individuals ...

Molecular characterization of covRS mutations in M1UK Streptococcus pyogenes

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Group A Streptococcus (GAS) acquires covRS mutations driving a hypervirulent bacterial state, frequently associated with invasive disease‐like necrotizing fasciitis. We demonstrate that the newly emerged M1UK GAS lineage can also acquire these mutations.

The role of inflammation and fibroblasts in conjunctival scarring in ocular mucous membrane pemphigoid [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Ocular mucous membrane pemphigoid (ocular MMP) is a visually devastating disease where up to 30% of patients become blind due to the consequences of conjunctival inflammation and aggressive fibrosis.

From energy provision to protein synthesis: Tunnelling nanotubes as mediators of intercellular metabolic cooperation in cancer

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The cytoskeleton‐mediated transport of mitochondria via tunnelling nanotubes restores respiration, increases ATP production, rescues cells from apoptosis, activates the AKT/mTOR signalling pathway, promotes cell migration and invasiveness, contributes to cancer progression and treatment resistance.

Simulation of non-contact tonometer-Ocular response analyzer

open access: yesNew Trends in Mathematical Science, 2016
As per World Health Organization, Glaucoma is considered as the second leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. An accurate assessment of Intraocular Pressure (IOP) is crucial for diagnosis and management of a chronic eye disease called Glaucoma. The elevation of IOP in eye leads to optic nerve damage and hence causing visual impairment. Thus,

A new flow chip in combination with multiphoton microscopy as a protocol for longitudinal 3D imaging of tissue calcification under shear stress

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Miniaturized flow chip platform enabling continuous perfusion and longitudinal multiphoton 3D imaging of vascular smooth muscle cell constructs under physiological flow. Brightfield imaging guides region selection, while CellTracker Green and mRuby‐labeled fetuin‐A visualize cells and mineral deposition, respectively. Magnesium supplementation markedly

Malformin A1–mediated cytotoxicity in ovarian cancer cells occurs through pyroptosis and autophagy

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This study investigated the effects of the natural compound Malformin A1 (MA1) on the cytoskeleton that regulates cell proliferation and migration. Disruption of the cytoskeleton can impair these processes and promote cancer cell death. MA1 disrupted cytoskeletal organization, induced DNA damage, inflammation, activated autophagy, and pyroptosis ...
