Cytotoxic Effect of Spermine on Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells

Investigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 2007
A prior study showed inactivation of ornithine-delta-aminotransferase (OAT)-deficient human retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells by a specific irreversible inhibitor (5-fluoromethylornithine; 5-FMO) leading to cell death, in an in vitro model of gyrate atrophy (GA) of the choroid and retina.

Anterior chamber flare and central macular thickness after trabeculectomy versus after phacoemulsification

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare the inflammatory response in the eye after trabeculectomy to after phacoemulsification, focusing on anterior chamber flare (AC flare) and central macular thickness (CMT). Methods Data from 436 participants in two randomized controlled trials were analysed.

HtrA1 Mediated Intracellular Effects on Tubulin Using a Polarized RPE Disease Model

EBioMedicine, 2018
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of irreversible vision loss. The protein HtrA1 is enriched in retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells isolated from AMD patients and in drusen deposits.

Mesopic microperimetry in Stargardt disease: Application and reliability

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Mesopic microperimetry (mMP) is a promising functional endpoint in clinical trials for Stargardt disease type 1 (STGD1). This study evaluated the test–retest variability of mMP and influencing factors, which is essential for ensuring reliability in future STGD1 trials.

Microtubule motors transport phagosomes in the RPE, and lack of KLC1 leads to AMD-like pathogenesis. [PDF]

, 2015
The degradation of phagosomes, derived from the ingestion of photoreceptor outer segment (POS) disk membranes, is a major role of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). Here, POS phagosomes were observed to associate with myosin-7a, and then kinesin-1, as

Changes in choroidal and retinal thickness 6 months before and during 18 months of orthokeratology lens treatment in myopic children

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate changes in choroidal and retinal thickness before and during myopia control treatment with orthokeratology lenses (OKL) in myopic children. Methods This was a sub‐study of CONTROL and CONTROL2 studies. The present study was a 2‐year, prospective, single‐group interventional study consisting of a 6‐month pre‐treatment ...

Identification and functional validation of a novel disease‐causing variant in the noncoding region of NYX

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) are a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of disorders, with ~30% of cases remaining genetically unsolved. Complete congenital stationary night blindness (cCSNB) is a subtype of IRD, usually associated with reduced visual acuity, nystagmus and high myopia.

Advances in retinal pigment epithelial cell transplantation for retinal degenerative diseases

Stem Cell Research & Therapy
Retinal degenerative diseases are a leading cause of vision loss and blindness globally, impacting millions. These diseases result from progressive damage to retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells for which no curative or palliative treatments exist.

The oscillatory response of the electroretinogram and neuronal adaptation

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract After more than 50 years, there still remains a challenge and an interest to know more as well as extend and deepen our understanding of the small rapid wavelets, the oscillatory potentials (OPs), of the electroretinogram (ERG) and the neuronal adaptation of the retina.
