Tissue-targeted and localized AAV5-DCN and AAV5-PEDF combination gene therapy abrogates corneal fibrosis and concurrent neovascularization in rabbit eyes in vivo
CONCLUSION: The combination AAV5-DCN and AAV5-PEDF topical gene therapy effectively reduces corneal fibrosis and CNV with high tolerability in vivo in rabbits. Additional studies are warranted.PMID:38191093 | DOI:10.1016/j.jtos.2024.01.001 (Source: The Ocular Surface)

Endogenous TSG-6 modulates corneal inflammation following chemical injury
CONCLUSION: TSG-6 is endogenously expressed in the cornea and upregulated after injury where it propagates the inflammatory response following chemical injury.PMID:38151073 | DOI:10.1016/j.jtos.2023.12.007 (Source: The Ocular Surface)

A closer look into the cellular and molecular biology of myoepithelial cells across various exocrine glands
Ocul Surf. 2023 Dec 21:S1542-0124(23)00153-2. doi: 10.1016/j.jtos.2023.12.003. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMyoepithelial cells (MECs) are a unique subset of epithelial cells that possess several smooth muscle cell characteristics, such as a high number of actin-myosin filaments and the ability to contract. These cells are primarily located around the secretory cells of exocrine glands, including the salivary, mammary, lacrimal, and sweat glands. Their primary functions involve the construction of the basement membrane and help with secretion of gland products through contraction. So far, no comparative analysis of MECs i...

Ocular surface changes in mice with streptozotocin-induced diabetes and diabetic polyneuropathy
CONCLUSION: The early ocular changes in DM Mice only affect the lacrimal gland. Which, is reflected in the tear film composition of DPN mice. Due to the high protein concentration in tear fluid in humans, proteomic analysis in addition to noninvasive investigation of goblet cells and cornea can serve as a tools for the early diagnosis of DPN, DED in clinical practice. Early treatment could delay or even prevent the ocular complications of DM such as DED and PN.PMID:38141818 | DOI:10.1016/j.jtos.2023.12.006 (Source: The Ocular Surface)
