Idiopathic pigmented vitreous cyst without autofluorescence: a case report

BMC Ophthalmology, 2017
Background Vitreous cysts are rare clinical findings and seldom cause visual disturbance. They are generally classified as congenital or acquired and are considered idiopathic when the etiology can not be determined.

Zebrafish inversin mutants develop scoliosis in the absence of laterality defects

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Human mutations in INVERSIN are associated with nephronophthisis, variable penetrance of situs inversus and congenital heart disease. Inversin has been shown to localize to cilia and many of the patient phenotypes are attributed to disrupted cilia function.

Identification of Pigment Epithelium-Derived Factor in the Interphotoreceptor Matrix of Bovine Eyes

Protein Expression and Purification, 1995
Pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) is a neurotrophic protein and a member of the serine protease inhibitor superfamily. Here we describe the identification of PEDF in bovine eyes and optimization of its purification from this natural source.

Development of a Zebrafish Embryo‐Based Test System for Thyroid Hormone System Disruption: 3Rs in Ecotoxicological Research

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, EarlyView.
Abstract There is increasing concern regarding pollutants disrupting the vertebrate thyroid hormone (TH) system, which is crucial for development. Thus, identification of TH system–disrupting chemicals (THSDCs) is an important requirement in the Organisation for Economic Co‐operation and Development (OECD) testing framework.

Generation of three induced pluripotent stem cell lines from type 2 diabetic patients with ocular complications

Stem Cell Research, 2020
Retinopathy is a well-known ocular complication that occurs in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Recent evidence also indicates that diabetic patients have an increased prevalence of dry eye syndrome.

Research progress on the use of the optical coherence tomography system for the diagnosis and treatment of central nervous system tumors

Ibrain, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 3-18, Spring 2025.
With the advantages of high‐resolution imaging, efficient image acquisition, intraoperative real‐time detection, and radiation‐free and noninvasive characteristics, optical coherence tomography (OCT) provides accurate diagnosis and effective intraoperative guidance for the minimally invasive diagnosis and treatment of central nervous system (CNS ...

A New Paradigm: 46 Structural Cell Types Function as Environment‐Supporting Innate Immune Cells, With Endothelial and Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells as Key Prototypes

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The scope, organization, and biological significance of innate immune functions across structural cell types remain poorly defined. To address these fundamental knowledge gaps, we analyzed experimental data of transcriptomes generated by our group and others.

A proper protocol for isolation of retinal pigment epithelium from rabbit eyes

Advanced Biomedical Research, 2014
Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is a hexagonal monolayer of pigmented cells located between the neural retina and the choroid with an essential role for visual function. So, isolation, propagation and maintenance of their functional integrity of RPE are crucial for research in vitro which next used for cell transplantation.
