Biocompatibility and functionality of a tissue-engineered living corneal stroma transplanted in the feline eye
(Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology, 2014)PURPOSE. Corneal tissue shortage has become a major concern worldwide, which has motivated the search for alternative solutions to eye bank human eyes for corneal transplantation. Minimally invasive lamellar transplantation and tissue engineering ... -
Preventing corneal calcification associated with xylazine for longitudinal optical coherence tomography in young rodents
(Association for research in vision and ophthalmology, 2017-01)PURPOSE. Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) is widely used in clinical ophthalmology and recently gained popularity in laboratory research involving small rodents. Its noninvasive nature allows repeated measurements, thereby ... -
Restoration of mitochondrial integrity, telomere length, and sensitivity to oxidation by in vitro culture of Fuchs’ endothelial corneal dystrophy cells
(Association for research in vision and ophthalmology, 2016)PURPOSE. Fuchs’ endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD), a degenerative disease of the corneal endothelium that leads to vision loss, is a leading cause of corneal transplantation. The cause of this disease is still unknown, but the implication of ...
