Isolation, culture and characterization of primary mouse RPE cells

open access: yesNature Protocols, 2016
Mouse models are powerful tools for the study of ocular diseases. Alterations in the morphology and function of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) are common features shared by many ocular disorders.

Water/Fat Separated Echo Planar Time‐Resolved Imaging (WFS‐EPTI) for Distortion‐Free Multi‐Contrast MRI

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Echo‐planar time‐resolved imaging (EPTI) provides distortion‐ and T2/T2* blurring‐free multi‐echo/multi‐contrast imaging with fast speed, making it an efficient acquisition method for various MRI applications. Here, we aim to achieve water–fat separation for EPTI to improve fat signal removal for brain/body imaging applications. Theory

Exercise, exerkines, and muscle–brain crosstalk in Parkinson's disease

open access: yesNeuroprotection, EarlyView.
Abstract Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder with motor and non‐motor symptoms, driven by dopaminergic loss and α‐synuclein accumulation. Beyond neurodegeneration, growing evidence highlights skeletal muscle health as a key determinant of prognosis, with sarcopenia and frailty contributing to greater disability, fall ...

Low‐contrast visual acuity versus low‐luminance visual acuity in choroideremia

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Optometry, EarlyView., 2020
Clinical relevance Choroideremia is a progressive X‐linked inherited rod‐cone dystrophy. Patients present with nyctalopia and progressive visual field loss, but visual acuity remains well preserved early on. This study showed that low‐luminance visual acuity may be a useful clinical outcome measure during earlier disease stages.

Phagocytosis pf latex beads by RPE cells.

open access: yes, 2023
Phagocytic function of hESC-RPE cells and adult RPE cells was tested in vitro by challenging the cells with FITC-labeled latex beads. Beads ingestion (green) was observed for hESC-RPE cells, as well as for adult RPE cells.
