The term "tissue optical clearing" (TOC) came into use at the end of the 20th century and is associated with the development of methods for controlling tissue scattering properties using the refractive index matching effect [...].

Corneal Stromal Stem Cell-Derived Extracellular Vesicles Attenuate ANGPTL7 Expression in the Human Trabecular Meshwork.

Department of Ophthalmology, Stein Eye Institute, David Geffen School of Medicine, University of California, Los Angeles, CA, USA.
Purpose: Regulating intraocular pressure (IOP), mainly via the trabecular meshwork (TM), is critical in developing glaucoma. Whereas current treatments aim to lower IOP, directly targeting the dysfunctional TM tissue for therapeutic intervention has proven challenging. In our study, we utilized Dexamethasone (Dex)-treated TM cells as a model to investigate how extracellular vesicles (EVs) from immortalized corneal stromal stem cells (imCSSCs) could influence ANGPTL7 and MYOC genes expression within TM cells.

Department of Ophthalmology, National Taiwan University Hospital, Taipei, Taiwan.
Purpose: To investigate the effect of Rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK) inhibitor Y27632 on bioenergetic capacity and resilience of corneal endothelial cells (CECs) under metabolic stress.
Methods: Bovine CECs (BCECs) were treated with Y27632 and subjected to bioenergetic profiling using the Seahorse XFp Analyzer. The effects on adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production through oxidative phosphorylation and glycolysis were measured.

January 2025
Wilmer Eye Institute, Johns Hopkins Medical Institute, Baltimore, Maryland, United States.
Purpose: Although mechanical injury to the cornea (e.g. chronic eye rubbing) is a known risk factor for keratoconus progression, how it contributes to loss of corneal integrity is not known.

The use of tissues of porcine origin has gained significant momentum in the scientific community due to their anatomical and physiological resemblance to human tissues. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the key biological features of porcine ocular structures, including the cornea, conjunctiva, and associated tissues, in comparison to their human counterparts. Additionally, this review outlined the ex vivo applications of these tissues in the study of different biological processes and the simulation of pathological conditions.
