Article Synopsis
- - The glycosylation profile of therapeutic proteins, especially sialylation, is important for their effectiveness and stability, particularly in fusion proteins used to treat angiogenic disorders.
- - A mass spectrometry method was used to analyze sialylation levels in VEGFR-IgG fusion proteins by examining different fractions from production media, revealing varying sialylation levels.
- - The study found that the overall sialylation levels matched the expected results from the different fractions, emphasizing the importance of LC-MS/MS-based analysis for quality control and consistency in biosimilar development.
Purpose: To investigate optic opacification of hydrophobic acrylic intraocular lens (IOL) depending on hydration and temperature conditions.
Methods: IOL (Acrysof MA60BM Alcon, Fort Worth, Texas, USA) extracted from a 55-year-old male who underwent binocular cataract 11 years ago were used for the analysis. On slit lamp examination, the binocular IOL optics showed homogenous opacification.
Purpose: We analyzed time series changes in cataract surgeries in Korea, and provide basic data to enhance the efficiency of medical services for cataract surgery.
Methods: Among cataract surgery statistics registered in the Korean National Health Insurance Cooperation from 2006 to 2012, we used data regarding the number of patients and operations and the number of patients and operations per 100,000 people. We analyzed various time series changes, including differences by sex and age.
Ethanol, the major fermentation product of yeast, is a stress factor in yeast. We previously constructed an ethanol-tolerant mutant yeast iETS3 by using the global transcriptional machinery engineering. However, the ethanol-tolerance mechanism has not been systematically investigated.

Methods: The present retrospective, comparative case study included 58 eyes of 35 consecutive patients (IVTA group, 20 eyes; IVB group, 38 eyes) with DME. IVTA (4 mg) or IVB (1.
Kimura's disease involving the ipsilateral face and extraocular muscles.
Korean J Ophthalmol
September 2009
Kimura's disease (KD) is a rare, chronic inflammatory disorder, which is characterized by tumor-like masses mainly located in the head and neck region. Extraocular muscle involvement in KD is uncommon. We report a case of KD that involved both the extraocular muscles and buccal area.
