Advanced nanotherapeutics for combating ocular infections: Rational design, antimicrobial mechanisms, and therapeutic breakthroughs

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Nanomaterials revolutionize ocular infection treatment by enabling targeted drug delivery and enhanced antimicrobial efficacy against resistant pathogens. This review systematically explores their rational design, multimodal mechanisms, and translational potential for next‐generation anti‐infective therapies.

The association between neural crest‐derived glia and melanocyte lineages throughout development and disease

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Neural crest cells are a transient cell population that emerges from the dorsal neural tube during neurulation and migrates extensively throughout the embryo. Among their diverse derivatives, glial cells (such as Schwann and satellite ganglionic cells) and melanocytes represent two major lineages. In vitro studies suggested they share a common

Evolution and mechanism of spectral tuning of Blue-absorbing visual pigments in butterflies [PDF]

, 2010
The eyes of flower-visiting butterflies are often spectrally highly complex with multiple opsin genes generated by gene duplication, providing an interesting system for a comparative study of color vision.

Bilateral Paracentral Climatic Droplet Keratopathy in Congenital Methemoglobinemia

TNOA Journal of Ophthalmic Science and Research
A 59-year-old woman, who is a known case of congenital methemoglobinemia, came with complaints of diminision of vision in both eyes for 2 years. The patient noticed whitish discolouration of cornea since teenage and did not undergo any ophthalmic ...

Role of SoxE transcription factors in development and disease

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Sox8, Sox9, and Sox10 arose by multiple rounds of genome duplications from a single SoxE gene in ancestral vertebrates. In this review, we will briefly discuss the molecular structure and function of SoxE transcription factors and their evolutionary origin. We will then discuss their expression, function, and developmental disorders.

Bilateral conjunctival melanocytosis and retinitis pigmentosa

Journal of Clinical Ophthalmology and Research, 2019
Conjunctival pigmented lesions have varied appearances. It arises from the melanocytic or nonmelanocytes. It is rare to find conjunctival melanocytosis associated with retinal pigmentary dystrophy.

Epilepsy characteristics in patients with muscle‐eye‐brain disease: A systematic review of electroclinical features

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Muscle‐Eye‐Brain disease (MEB) is a dystroglycanopathy that belongs to the congenital muscular dystrophies. Central nervous system manifestations include congenital brain abnormalities, neurodevelopmental delay, and epilepsy, making it a rare but important cause of developmental and epileptic encephalopathy.

Persistent activation of transducin by bleached rhodopsin in salamander rods. [PDF]

, 1996
The hydrolysis-resistant GTP analogue GTP-gamma-S was introduced into rods isolated from the retina of the salamander Ambystoma tigrinum to study the origin of the persistent excitation induced by intense bleaching illumination.

Integrative genomic and spatial transcriptomic analysis elucidates the oligodendrocyte‐mediated etiology of epileptic cortical thinning

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Focal epilepsy is characterized by progressive cortical thinning, particularly within limbic structures; however, whether this atrophy reflects acquired seizure‐induced damage or shared genetic predisposition remains unresolved. Methods We integrated genome‐wide association study (GWAS) summary statistics from the ILAE Consortium ...

Development of a Zebrafish Embryo‐Based Test System for Thyroid Hormone System Disruption: 3Rs in Ecotoxicological Research

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, EarlyView.
Abstract There is increasing concern regarding pollutants disrupting the vertebrate thyroid hormone (TH) system, which is crucial for development. Thus, identification of TH system–disrupting chemicals (THSDCs) is an important requirement in the Organisation for Economic Co‐operation and Development (OECD) testing framework.
