Neuroinflammation in Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2020
Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) is the second leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. Increasing evidence suggests oxidative damage and immune response defects are key factors contributing to glaucoma onset. Indeed, both the failure of the trabecular meshwork tissue in the conventional outflow pathway and the neuroinflammation process ...

Partial depletion of plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 decreases subcutaneous fat cell hypertrophy and liver cholesterol in high‐fat‐fed female mice

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

Mathematical Modelling of flow in Schlemm's canal and its influence on primary open angle glaucoma

, 2008
POAG (Primary Open Angle Glaucoma) is a major cause of blindness. This normally occurs when the IOP (intraocular pressure) increases. High pressure can be caused by an imbalance in the production and drainage of fluid (aqueous humour, AH) in the eye.

Emerging experimental and computational methods for studying redox‐regulated structural transitions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Redox reactions can reshape proteins and alter how they behave in cells, with important consequences for health and disease. This review explores emerging experimental and computational approaches for discovering these redox‐sensitive protein switches, revealing their structural effects, and predicting their behavior, opening new opportunities to ...

Refractive errors and biometry of primary angle-closure disease in a mixed Malaysian population [PDF]

International Journal of Ophthalmology, 2017
AIM: To assess the refractive status, anterior chamber depth (ACD) and axial length (AL) of patients with primary angle-closure disease (PACD). METHODS: Retrospective cohort. Data was collected from charts of all PACD patients treated from April 2013 to

Medical and Surgical Treatment of Primary Angle Closure Glaucoma

, 2012
Primary angle closure glaucoma occurs when pathologies in the relative/absolute sizes or positions of anterior segment structures or abnormal forces in the posterior segment structures apply pressure on the peripheral iris, causing iridocorneal angle ...

Translophagy—A potential link between autophagy impairment and translational errors

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neurodegenerative diseases are characterised by the accumulation of abnormal proteins and protein aggregates, but their origin often remains unknown. We propose that selective autophagy removes damaged protein‐making machinery, preventing errors during protein synthesis.

The genetics of primary open angle glaucoma [PDF]

British Journal of Ophthalmology, 1997
The advent of the discipline of molecular genetics over the past decade has led to a dramatic growth in our understanding of the genetics of a myriad of diseases. Ophthalmology has benefited greatly from this new technology, with significant advances in our knowledge about conditions as varied as aniridia and retinitis pigmentosa.1 2 Our understanding ...

Structural and biochemical analysis of a B12 superbinder

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
BtuG proteins are vitamin B12 scavengers in Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, a dominant human gut bacterium. We present crystal structures of three BtuG homologs bound to cobalamin and its precursor cobinamide, revealing picomolar binding affinities, among the highest known for any natural protein.
