Inhibition of heat shock protein 47 suppressed collagen production in Tenon's capsule fibroblasts
CONCLUSIONS: HSP47 siRNA inhibits the production of COLI in rat Tenon's fibroblasts, and may be the potential therapeutic method in bleb scarring after glaucoma filtration surgery.PMID:37724035 | DOI:10.5603/fhc.96514

Metformin protects against retinal ischemia/reperfusion injury through AMPK-mediated mitochondrial fusion
This study aims to evaluate the protective effect of metformin against retinal I/R injury and its underlying mechanism. I/R induced reduction in retina thickness and cell number in ganglion cell layer, and metformin alleviated I/R-induced retinal injury. Both retinal I/R and simulated ischemia/reperfusion (SIR) in R28 cells down-regulated expression of mitochondrial fusion protein Mfn2 and OPA1, which led to mitochondrial fission. Metformin also alleviated damage in R28 cells, and reversed the alteration in Mfn2 and OPA1, mitochondrial fission and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) disruption-induced by I/R or SIR as w...

A Feedback Loop between TGF- β1 and < em > ATG5 < /em > Mediated by miR-122-5p Regulates Fibrosis and EMT in Human Trabecular Meshwork Cells
Curr Issues Mol Biol. 2023 Mar 13;45(3):2381-2392. doi: 10.3390/cimb45030154.ABSTRACTAutophagy is a cell's evolutionary conserved process for degrading and recycling cellular proteins and removing damaged organelles. There has been an increasing interest in identifying the basic cellular mechanism of autophagy and its implications in health and illness during the last decade. Many proteinopathies such as Alzheimer's and Huntington's disease are reported to be associated with impaired autophagy. The functional significance of autophagy in exfoliation syndrome/exfoliation glaucoma (XFS/XFG), remains unknown though it is pres...
