Phosphodiesterase 3 inhibitors boost bone outgrowth

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose C‐type natriuretic peptide (CNP) stimulates skeletal growth by acting on the growth plates of long bones, and a CNP variant is clinically used for achondroplasia treatment. We previously reported that CNP stimulates the autonomic Ca2+ influx mediated by TRPM7 channels in growth plate chondrocytes to facilitate extracellular ...

Eyes Offshore: Reporting the Eye Health Needs of Refugees and Asylum Seekers in Australia's Offshore Detention Centres

open access: yesClinical &Experimental Ophthalmology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In the last two decades, over 250 000 refugees and asylum seekers have arrived in Australia, many of whom experience significant health problems. Information about their eye health is scarce, particularly for those detained offshore. This is the first study to explore the eye health and services available to this population, helping

Monogenic Retinal Diseases Associated With Genes Encoding Phototransduction Proteins: A Review

open access: yesClinical &Experimental Ophthalmology, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 260-280, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Phototransduction, the process by which captured photons elicit electrical changes in retinal rod and cone cells, represents the first neuronal step in vision and involves interactions between several highly specialised proteins. Pathogenic variants in genes encoding many of these proteins can give rise to significant vision impairment ...
