CLRN1 Variants in Müller Cells Cause Mitochondrial Dysfunction in USH3A Retinal Organoids
We generated retinal organoids from a patient with USH3A and performed single‐cell RNA sequencing. CLRN1 was specifically expressed in Müller cells, where its variants led to mitochondrial dysfunction and photoreceptor degeneration. ABSTRACT Background Usher syndrome 3A (USH3A), caused by mutations in the CLRN1 gene, leads to retinitis pigmentosa and ...

Adult-onset Foveomacular Vitelliform Dystrophy
Adult-onset foveomacular vitelliform dystrophy is one of the most common macular dystrophies, classified within the group of pattern dystrophies. The condition typically arises after the fourth decade of life and manifests with subretinal vitelliform ...

Expanding the Genotypic Spectrum of POMGNT1‐Related Muscle‐Eye‐Brain Disease: A Case Report
Compound heterozygous variants in the POMGNT1 gene expand the genotypic spectrum of Muscle‐Eye‐Brain disease, highlighting severe epilepsy with status epilepticus. Despite long disease duration, seizure freedom was achieved with intensive antiseizure polytherapy, underscoring the importance of continued therapeutic optimization in dystroglycanopathies.

ABSTRACT Purpose To highlight retinal ischemia as an important component of diabetic retinopathy (DR) pathogenesis, a significant prognostic factor, and a driver of various DR complications, including neovascularization. We aim to describe the main features of ischemic areas that can be identified through fundoscopy, color fundus photography, optical ...

Advancing Treatment of Degenerative Eye Diseases at the Nanoscale
Nanotherapeutics possess the potential to overcome longstanding bottlenecks in treating degenerative ophthalmic diseases. With a highly tunable surface chemistry, nanotechnology platforms can be customized to navigate specific anatomical barriers in the eye and target pathways of diseases.

Artificial photoreceptors are engineered to efficiently absorb light, with the strongest sensitivity in the green region of the visible spectrum. Upon illumination, they generate electrical signals that activate retinal ganglion cells, which are typically unaffected by disease, enabling transmission of visual information to the brain.

Staging concept for aging management: Definition, mechanism, and coping strategies
We divided the overall aging stage into “pre‐aging”, “aging compensation”, and “aging disability”. For each stage, we delineate the clinical presentations, biological phenomena, theoretical underpinnings, and key management priorities. Abstract Aging, as a gradual and largely irreversible biological process, characterized by declining organismal ...

Dissecting PDE6-Associated Inherited Retinal Dystrophies Using Patient-Derived Retinal Models
Inherited retinal dystrophies (IRDs) comprise a diverse group of genetic disorders that frequently result in irreversible vision loss due to photoreceptor dysfunction or degeneration. Among them, retinitis pigmentosa (RP) and achromatopsia (ACHM) are, in
