Ceramide is a Mediator of Apoptosis in Retina Photoreceptors [PDF]
PURPOSE. The precise mechanisms involved in photoreceptor apoptosis are still unclear. We here investigated the role of ceramide, a sphingolipid precursor that induces apoptosis upon cellular stress, in activating this death in photoreceptors.

Dengue Virus Capsid Protein Interaction With Nucleic Acids
Binding of dengue virus capsid protein (DENV C) to ssDNA alters Trp fluorescence intensity, lifetime, and anisotropy, revealing structural rearrangements in the complex and suggesting a possible association with liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS). ABSTRACT Dengue virus (DENV) transmission has greatly increased in the last decade, partly due to the ...

Generation of a human iPS cell line from a patient with retinitis pigmentosa due to EYS mutation [PDF]
Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is an inherited retinal degenerative disease. Mutations in EYS have been associated with autosomal recessive RP. The human iPS cell line, CABi002-A, derived from peripheral blood mononuclear cells from a patient carrying a ...

Tuberculous Endophthalmitis With Phthisis Bulbi: A Diagnostic Delay Case Report
ABSTRACT Tuberculous endophthalmitis should be prioritized in differential diagnosis for unexplained endophthalmitis in TB‐endemic regions; early systemic evaluation, timely pars plana vitrectomy, and adjunctive corticosteroids are crucial to prevent phthisis bulbi, though evidence for some interventions remains limited.

Cytomegalovirus retinitis occurring as a complication of HyperCVAD chemotherapy: Report of two cases
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis is usually diagnosed in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and in solid organ and hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients. It produces a characteristic necrotizing retinitis which is a sight-threatening

Mutation in RNF170 Causes Unsteady Gait with Hypertrophic Olivary Degeneration
ABSTRACT Hypertrophic olivary degeneration (HOD) is a rare form of transsynaptic degeneration resulting from disruption of the Guillain–Mollaret triangle, typically presenting with palatal tremor, ataxia, and nystagmus. Mutations in the Ring Finger Protein 170 (RNF170) gene have been associated with autosomal dominant sensory ataxia.
