Corneal Allograft Rejection: Immunopathogenesis to Therapeutics [PDF]
Corneal transplantation is among the most successful solid organ transplants. However, despite low rejection rates of grafts in the ‘low-risk’ setting, rejection can be as high as 70% when grafted into ‘high-risk’ recipient beds. Under normal homeostatic

Exploring the histopathological signature of repeat‐mediated Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy
Abstract Purpose To determine the histological differences between Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) cases with and without the most common genetic risk factor, expansion of a CTG repeat (CTG18.1) within the TCF4 gene. Methods Formalin‐fixed paraffin‐embedded corneal tissues were compared retrospectively, and CTG18.1 status was determined from

ABSTRACT The corneal endothelium is a monolayer of specialized cells that maintains stromal deturgescence and transparency, functions essential for vision. Despite its clinical importance, the developmental origins and homeostatic programs of the endothelium remain poorly understood, in part due to the lack of a lineage‐specific genetic driver.
