Gremlin is a potential target for posterior capsular opacification [PDF]
Cell Cycle, 2019 Objective: The present study was conducted to determine the role of gremlin during the development of posterior capsular opacification (PCO) via in vitro and in vivo experiments. Methods: The activation, roles and relationships of the BMPs/Smad1/5, MAPK, FAK and AKT signaling pathways in human lens epithelial cells (HLECs) after gremlin induction were ...

Preserving posterior capsular integrity in post-endothelial keratoplasty posterior capsular opacification [PDF]
Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2021 Endothelial keratoplasty (EK) with pseudophakia often presents with late-onset proliferative after-cataract with posterior capsule distension. We performed a modified technique of capsular bag lavage in 11 eyes with late-onset PCO after EK (4 cases: post-

αVβ8 integrin targeting to prevent posterior capsular opacification [PDF]
JCI Insight, 2021 Fibrotic posterior capsular opacification (PCO), a major complication of cataract surgery, is driven by transforming growth factor–β (TGF-β). Previously, αV integrins were found to be critical for the onset of TGF-β–mediated PCO in vivo; however, the ...

“NIR-triggered ROS storage” photodynamic intraocular implant for high-efficient and safe posterior capsular opacification prevention [PDF]
Asian Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2022 Posterior capsular opacification (PCO) is the leading cause of vision loss after cataract, mainly caused by the adhesion, proliferation and trans-differentiation of post-operative residual lens epithelial cells (LECs).

Posterior capsular opacification: A review
Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2013 Posterior capsular opacification (PCO) is the most frequent complication of cataract surgery. Advances in surgical techniques, intraocular lens (IOL) materials, and designs have reduced the PCO rate; however, it remains a significant problem resulting in suboptimal outcome of cataract surgery.

Prevention of posterior capsular opacification
Experimental Eye Research, 2015 Posterior capsular opacification (PCO) is a common complication of cataract surgery. The development of PCO is due to a combination of the processes of proliferation, migration, and transdifferentiation of residual lens epithelial cells (LECs) on the lens capsule.
