Contribution of Matrix Metalloproteinase-2 Genotypes to Taiwan Pterygium Risk
In VivoBackground/Aim: In the literature, the studies about the role of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) in pterygium diagnosis are mainly based on its protein expression. The role of MMP-2 variants has never been examined.

Expression of p53 and Ki-67 proteins in patients with increasing severity and duration of pterygium
Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2021 Purpose: Pterygium is a triangular fibrovascular subepithelial ingrowth of degenerative bulbar conjunctival tissue over the cornea. It is now considered to be a result of uncontrolled cellular proliferation as overexpression of p53 protein and Ki-67 ...

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Noonan syndrome (NS) is a genetically heterogeneous disorder characterized by a broad spectrum of clinical features resulting from dysregulation of the RAS/MAPK pathway. Although complex genotypes are increasingly recognized in NS, cases harboring two distinct pathogenic variants in different NS genes remain extremely rare.

Modern competency‐based teaching of human sexual development
Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.Abstract Embryology is an integral part of anatomy and a key subject in basic medical education. The development of the sexual tract, which is closely associated with the formation of the urinary tract and the organs of continence, is particularly complex and relevant for many medical disciplines.
