Glycemic Control, Animal Protein Intake, and the Risk of Diabetic Retinopathy Progression Among Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Effective glycemic control and food consumption play crucial roles in modulating diabetic retinopathy (DR) progression. This observational longitudinal study explored the hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and dietary patterns and their associations with the risk and progression of DR among 369 individuals with type 2 diabetes.

The Retinal Pigment Epithelium Is a Notch Signaling Niche in the Mouse Retina

Cell Reports, 2017
Summary: Notch signaling in neural progenitor cell is triggered by ligands expressed in adjacent cells. To identify the sources of active Notch ligands in the mouse retina, we negatively regulated Notch ligand activity in various neighbors of retinal ...

Ex Vivo Evaluation of Poly(Solketal Acrylate) Nanoparticles for Intravitreal Drug Delivery to the Posterior Eye Segment

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Nile Red‐loaded poly(solketal acrylate) nanoparticles enable fluorescence tracking and exhibit nontoxic profiles in retinal cells. Enhanced cellular uptake and deep retinal penetration after intravitreal injection highlight their excellent potential for targeted ocular drug delivery to the posterior segment of the eye.

Rescue of the MERTK phagocytic defect in a human iPSC disease model using translational read-through inducing drugs. [PDF]

, 2017
Inherited retinal dystrophies are an important cause of blindness, for which currently there are no effective treatments. In order to study this heterogeneous group of diseases, adequate disease models are required in order to better understand pathology

Staging concept for aging management: Definition, mechanism, and coping strategies

VIEW, EarlyView.
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 ...
