Pre-treatment With Ranibizumab Aggravates PDT Injury and Alleviates Inflammatory Response in Choroid-Retinal Endothelial Cells

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) is the predominant subtype of exudative age-related macular degeneration in Asians. Although photodynamic therapy (PDT) is widely used for PCV treatment, its long-term beneficial effects are unsatisfactory ...

Visual impairment and employment in Norway

BMC Public Health, 2022
Abstract Background Past studies have suggested lower employment of people with visual impairment. Reasons for this are less known. This study aimed to examine the employment rates among people with visual impairment, and its association with sociodemographic characteristics, vision-related factors, depression, and life ...

The cytoskeletal control of B cell receptor and integrin signaling in normal B cells and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.

Visually-impaired touch

Scholarpedia, 2012
Blind individuals rely on their sense of touch for pattern perception, much as the rest of us depend on vision. If a blind person has extra training in the use of touch for tasks such as Braille or spatial orientation, then we might expect increased skill as a consequence. This is the sensory compensation hypothesis, and there is evidence that practice

Interaction vesicles as emerging mediators of host‐pathogen molecular crosstalk and their implications for infection dynamics

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Interaction extracellular vesicles (iEVs) are hybrid vesicles formed through host‐pathogen communication. They facilitate immune evasion, transfer pathogens' molecules, increase host cell uptake, and enhance virulence. This Perspective article illustrates the multifunctional roles of iEVs and highlights their emerging relevance in infection dynamics ...
