Radiosurgery and fractionated radiotherapy for cavernous sinus meningioma: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Constantin Tuleasca

IntroductionRadiosurgery (RS) and fractionated radiotherapy (FRT) are part of the therapeutic armamentarium for the management of cavernous sinus meningiomas. We propose a systematic review of the local tumor control and clinical outcomes after monofractio ...

Corneal epithelial stem cells and their niche at a glance

Freddy Radtke, Craig Nowell

The corneal epitheliumacts as a protective barrier on the anterior ocular surface and is essential for maintaining transparency of the cornea and thus visual acuity. During both homeostasis and repair, the corneal epithelium is maintained by self-renewing ...

Architectural Modeling of a Multi-Tone/Single-Sideband Serial Link Transceiver for Lossy Wireline Data Links

Yusuf Leblebici, Gain Kim

This paper presents a serial link transceiver (TRX) architecture that enables high-speed data transmission over a lossy backplane channel without the presence of equalization circuits. The proposed architecture employs multi-tone signaling to reduce inter- ...

Red and NIR light dosimetry in the human deep brain

Georges Wagnières, Matthieu Philippe Emmanuel Zellweger, Blaise Lovisa

Photobiomodulation (PBM) appears promising to treat the hallmarks of Parkinson's Disease (PD) in cellular or animal models. We measured light propagation in different areas of PD-relevant deep brain tissue during transcranial, transsphenoidal illumination ...

Notch signaling in the pigmented epithelium of the anterior eye segment promotes ciliary body development at the expense of iris formation

Freddy Radtke, Friedrich Beermann, Craig Nowell, Bhushan Sarode

The ciliary body and iris are pigmented epithelial structures in the anterior eye segment that function to maintain correct intra-ocular pressure and regulate exposure of the internal eye structures to light, respectively. The cellular and molecular factor ...

Notch Signaling in Pigment Cells and Generation of Mouse Models for Ocular Diseases

Bhushan Sarode

Cellular signaling mediated by Notch receptors results in coordinated regulation of cell growth, survival and differentiation. In melanocytes, Notch signaling is essential for the maintenance of melanocytes and the melanocyte stem cell population. Whereas, ...

VAX1 Mutation Associated with Microphthalmia, Corpus Callosum Agenesis, and Orofacial Clefting: The First Description of a VAX1 Phenotype in Humans

Vax1 and Vax2 have been implicated in eye development and the closure of the choroid fissure in mice and zebrafish. We sequenced the coding exons of VAX1 and VAX2 in 70 patients with anophthalmia/microphthalmia (A/M). In VAX1, we observed homozygosity for ...
