Common clinical features of unilateral retinal pigment epithelium dysgenesis and combined hamartoma of the retina and retinal pigment epithelium

BMC Ophthalmology, 2022
Background Herein, we report two cases of unilateral retinal pigment epithelium dysgenesis (URPED) in Chinese patients and explore the relationship between URPED and combined hamartoma of the retina and retinal pigment epithelium (CHRRPE).

Evaluation of an Intravitreal Rho-Associated Kinase Inhibitor Depot Formulation in a Rat Model of Diabetic Retinopathy

Pharmaceutics, 2021
Rho-associated kinase (ROCK) activation was shown to contribute to microvascular closure, retinal hypoxia, and to retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) barrier disruption in a rat model of diabetic retinopathy.

Retinal pigment epithelium degeneration caused by aggregation of PRPF31 and the role of HSP70 family of proteins [PDF]

, 2020
Background Mutations in pre-mRNA splicing factor PRPF31 can lead to retinitis pigmentosa (RP). Although the exact disease mechanism remains unknown, it has been hypothesized that haploinsufficiency might be involved in the ...

Alterations of retinal thickness measured by optical coherence tomography correlate with neurophysiological measures in diabetic polyneuropathy

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, 2021
Aims/Introduction Diabetic polyneuropathy (DPN) and diabetic retinopathy (DR) are traditionally regarded as microvascular complications. However, these complications may share similar neurodegenerative pathologies.

Foveal simple hamartoma of retinal pigment epithelium

TNOA Journal of Ophthalmic Science and Research, 2018
Congenital anomalies of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) are rare entities among which simple hamartoma of RPE is extremely rare. Majority of reported cases of congenital simple hamartoma were extrafoveal and patients were asymptomatic. These lesions may

Preliminary study on electrophysiological changes after cellular autograft in age-related macular degeneration [PDF]

, 2014
Background: Evolving atrophic macular degeneration represents at least 80% of all macular degenerations and is currently without a standardized care. Autologous fat transplantation (AFT) efficacy was demonstrated by several studies, since these cells are

Long term evolution of combined hamartoma of the retina and retinal pigment epithelium

Vision Pan-America, 2014
Combined hamartoma of the retina and of the retinal pigment epithelium are extremely rare benign tumors distinguished by retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and glial tissue proliferation, provoking severe peripapillary and retinal distortion ...

Photoreceptor Outer Segment-like Structures in Long-Term 3D Retinas from Human Pluripotent Stem Cells. [PDF]

, 2017
The retinal degenerative diseases, which together constitute a leading cause of hereditary blindness worldwide, are largely untreatable. Development of reliable methods to culture complex retinal tissues from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) could ...
