Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada Syndrome in Two Patients with Immunoglobulin A Nephropathy [PDF]
, 2007 We describe herein 2 patients who developed Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome in the course of renal biopsy-proven immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy. A 61-year-old man with an 11-year history of IgA nephropathy and a 16-year history of thyroiditis, and a 56-

Dissection of a Mouse Eye for a Whole Mount of the Retinal Pigment Epithelium [PDF]
Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2011 The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) lies at the back of the mammalian eye, just under the neural retina, which contains the photoreceptors (rods and cones). The RPE is a monolayer of pigmented cuboidal cells and associates closely with the neural retina just above it.

Near-infrared fundus autoflorescence imaging in solar retinopathy
GMS Ophthalmology Cases, 2017 Solar retinopathy is a rare clinical entity caused by photochemical damage to the retinal pigment epithelium layer and photoreceptors of the fovea. Here we describe a case of a 33-year-old female patient diagnosed by near-infrared fundus autofluorescence

Succinate Can Shuttle Reducing Power from the Hypoxic Retina to the O2-Rich Pigment Epithelium
Cell Reports, 2020 Summary: When O2 is plentiful, the mitochondrial electron transport chain uses it as a terminal electron acceptor. However, the mammalian retina thrives in a hypoxic niche in the eye.

Photodynamic Therapy Treatment for Eyes with Drusenoid Pigment Epithelium Detachment [PDF]
Korean Journal of Ophthalmology, 2008 We report the clinical course of photodynamic therapy (PDT) in a patient with drusenoid pigment epithelium detachment (PED). A patient with drusenoid PED underwent PDT follow-up was carried out at one week, one month, three months, six months and one year after treatment.

Journal of Veterinary Medical Science, 2010 The tapetum lucidum is a light-reflective device improving visual sensitivity in mesopic vision. There have been few studies on tapetal distribution and its relationship with degree of pigmentation in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). In the present study, sheep's eyes were used for macroscopical observation of the tapetum, and then histological ...

Eye development: a view from the retina pigmented epithelium
BioEssays, 2004 AbstractThe retina pigment epithelium (RPE) is a highly specialised epithelium that serves as a multifunctional and indispensable component of the vertebrate eye. Although a great deal of attention has been paid to its transdifferentiation capabilities and its ancillary functions in neural retina development, little is known about the molecular ...
