A rhesus macaque model of α‐dystroglycanopathy caused by a POMT1 splice altering variant

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Rhesus macaques homozygous for a naturally occurring spice altering variant in the POMT1 gene develop lissencephaly, microphthalmia, and muscular contracture. The presentation models severe presentation of the human Walker‐Warburg syndrome. Abstract Background Biallelic mutations in genes associated with α‐dystroglycan glycosylation manifest in a ...

Chrysin attenuates diabetes‐induced retinal injury by inhibiting microglial GBP3/NLRP3/GSDMD‐mediated pyroptosis

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We investigated the therapeutic potential and mechanism of chrysin in experimental diabetic retinal disease. Using a streptozotocin (STZ)‐induced diabetic mouse model and high‐glucose‐stimulated BV2 microglia, we revealed chrysin‐responsive pyroptosis‐associated signatures and identified GBP3 as a regulated node.

Understanding the spacing of placodes in the eye: A comparative study across age and species

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The conjunctival placodes of the avian eye form in an intriguing and conserved sequence in a circular annulus around the cornea. These 13–16 placodes develop into papillae that are essential for inducing underlying intramembranous flat bones, known as scleral ossicles, which form an important part of the ocular skeleton.

Engineering Biology Beyond Single Genes: Advances and Challenges in Multiplex Genome Editing

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Multiplex genome editing is transforming genome engineering from single‐gene perturbation to network‐level control, yet its broader application remains limited by challenges in gRNA array engineering, delivery technologies, and safety management. Emerging AI‐driven approaches are accelerating guide RNA design and CRISPR effector optimization for ...

Primary Cilium-Mediated Retinal Pigment Epithelium Maturation Is Disrupted in Ciliopathy Patient Cells

Cell Reports, 2018
Summary: Primary cilia are sensory organelles that protrude from the cell membrane. Defects in the primary cilium cause ciliopathy disorders, with retinal degeneration as a prominent phenotype.

Age‐related differences in hydroxychloroquine‐associated adverse events: A pharmacovigilance study based on the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims This real‐world pharmacovigilance study utilizes FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) data (2004–2024) to characterize age‐related disparities in hydroxychloroquine (HCQ)‐associated adverse events (AEs), addressing gaps in age‐stratified risk assessment. Methods Disproportionality analysis (reporting odds ratios, RORs) and parametric Weibull

Machine Learning Models of Phase Contrast Images Predict Efficiency of Human Pluripotent Stem Cell Differentiation to Cardiomyocytes

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
Human pluripotent stem cells were differentiated to cTnT+ cardiomyocytes and imaged throughout the process using phase contrast. We predicted differentiation efficiency (cTnT+ area) from phase contrast and compared model performance with a live‐cell cTnT‐GFP reporter.

DEL-1: a promising treatment for AMD-associated ER stress in retinal pigment epithelial cells

Journal of Translational Medicine
Background Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is an irreversible eye disease that can cause blurred vision. Regular exercise has been suggested as a therapeutic strategy for treating AMD, but how exercise improves AMD is not yet understood.
