The Role of Decorin in the Ocular Surface: Structure, Function, and Therapeutic Potential

Proteoglycan Research, Volume 3, Issue 3, July 2025.
ABSTRACT The ocular surface, comprising the cornea, conjunctiva, and sclera, relies on a complex extracellular matrix (ECM) for structural support and functional integrity. Decorin (DCN), a small leucine‐rich proteoglycan, a key ECM component involved in collagen fibrillogenesis, growth factor modulation, and cellular regulation, is essential for ...

Imaging of combined hepatocellular‐cholangiocarcinoma in cirrhosis and risk of false diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma

United European Gastroenterology Journal, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 69-77, February 2019., 2019
Background Diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma can be achieved by imaging in cirrhotic patients. Combined hepatocellular‐cholangiocarcinoma is a primary liver tumor and its imaging patterns have been poorly investigated. Misdiagnosis for either hepatocellular carcinoma or benign lesions can occur.

Our hypothesis regarding the role of stem cell markers in OSSN.

, 2016
This figure shows the expression of stem cell markers (p63, CD44, c-Kit and ABCG2) in OSSN and how these makers might be playing role in the progression of OSSN and may have role in better prognosis at late stage of neoplasia.The figure also correlates ...

A six‐year comprehensive review of eye cytology cases received at a tertiary level hospital

Diagnostic Cytopathology, Volume 52, Issue 9, Page 511-518, September 2024.
Abstract Background Ocular cytology is an effective method of diagnosing infective, benign, and malignant ocular disease processes due to easy accessibility and rapid turnaround time. However, these specimens pose significant diagnostic challenges due to rarity of the specimen type, sparse diagnostic material available for ancillary workup, and ...

Primary Conjunctival Basal Cell Carcinoma Mimicking an Ocular Surface Squamous Neoplasia in a Young Adult Filipino: A Case Report and Literature Review

Case Reports in Ophthalmological Medicine, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Objective: To describe the morphological and histopathological features of primary conjunctival basal cell carcinoma (BCC) in a young adult Filipino. Introduction: Malignant conjunctival tumors arise from different cells, the most common of which are squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs), (including ocular surface squamous neoplasia [OSSN]), melanomas, and ...

Applications of Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography in Cornea and Ocular Surface Diseases

Journal of Ophthalmology, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a noncontact technology that produces high‐resolution cross‐sectional images of ocular tissues. Anterior segment OCT (AS‐OCT) enables the precise visualization of anterior segment structure; thus, it can be used in various corneal and ocular surface disorders.

Medical treatment for ocular surface squamous neoplasia

, 2023
Ocular surface squamous neoplasia (OSSN) is the most common non-melanocytic tumour of the ocular surface. Surgical excision with wide margins using the "no-touch" method was originally the most popular treatment for OSSN. However, in the past two decades,

Multiple oncogenic viruses identified in Ocular surface squamous neoplasia in HIV-1 patients

Infectious Agents and Cancer, 2010
Background Ocular surface squamous neoplasia (OSSN) is a rare cancer that has increased in incidence with the HIV pandemic in Africa. The underlying cause of this cancer in HIV-infected patients from Botswana is not well defined.
