HDAC6 is upregulated in corneal diseases and causes ENKD1 deacetylation at lysine 98. Deacetylation of ENKD1 blocks its ...

Also, it was shown recently that in the rabbit cornea the epithelium is the source of an active sodium transport system, and the endothelium shows only a passive behaviour in relation to the ...

In these instances, the cornea is permanently damaged, resulting in blindness in the affected eye ... In this procedure — known as "cultivated autologous limbal epithelial cell transplantation" — ...

Researchers successfully pulled off the first eye stem cell transplants to help heal cornea damage, and the results speak for ...

limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD), which prevents the renewal of the corneal epithelium, eventually leading to incurable corneal damage; and corneal neovascularization, a process in which blood ...

Transplanted epithelial stem cells from a healthy eye repaired irreversible corneal injury and restored at least partial vision in more than 90% of patients, a preliminary clinical study showed.

The study was led by Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts Eye and Ear researchers and surgeons. The researchers reported ...

Epi-on corneal crosslinking is advancing through innovations like supplemental oxygen, chemical oxygenation, and ...

The cornea is the clear, outermost layer of the eye. It's outer border, the limbus, contains a large volume of healthy stem cells called limbal epithelial cells, which maintain the eye's smooth ...

In these instances, the cornea is permanently damaged ... In this procedure — known as "cultivated autologous limbal epithelial cell transplantation" — doctors take stem cells from the ...
