Hyalocytes in tissue engineering - First steps towards a cell-based vitreous substitute [PDF]
, 2007 The vitreous body represents the main compartment of the eye. This unique tissue is free of cells in its centre, however, in the cortex of the vitreous body and in the vitreous base, there are a sparse number of cells, designated as hyalocytes.

Physiology of Vitreous Substitutes
, 2014 Human vitreous is a natural intraocular polymeric hydrogel with distinct biochemical and physiological functions. Surgical removal of the vitreous, or vitrectomy, is now commonly performed for the treatment of many vitreoretinal diseases. This has led to

A Whole‐Head Finite Element Model for Electrical Neuromodulation via Visual Brain‐Machine Interfaces
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A multimodal, personalized head model is presented that integrates the entire visual pathway with surrounding tissues to simulate electrical stimulation of the optic nerve. In vivo validation in humans and goats, plus systematic component‐elimination analysis, demonstrates the high accuracy of the comprehensive model.

A Phosphorylation‐Induced Micellization Switch in the Low‐Complexity Domain of TDP‐43
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Phosphorylation of TAR DNA‐binding protein's 43 kDa (TDP‐43) low‐complexity domain by casein kinase 1 delta (CK1δ) acts as a molecular switch, redirecting its self‐assembly from macroscopic phase separation toward finite‐sized, spherical block‐copolymer micelles of ∼30 nm.

Cyclic GMP in the pig vitreous and retina after experimental retinal detachment [PDF]
, 2008 Purpose: Earlier studies have revealed a decreased level of cGMP in vitreous fluid obtained from patients with a retinal detachment. To further investigate this phenomenon, we developed an experimental retinal detachment model in pigs.
