JNK Inhibition Reduced Retinal Ganglion Cell Death after Ischemia/Reperfusion In Vivo and after Hypoxia In Vitro

Tatiana Favez

Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) are key regulators that have been linked to cell survival and death. Among the main classes of MAPKs, c-jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) has been shown to mediate cell stress responses associated with apoptosis. In Vitr ...

Molecular Analysis of NOTCH2 in Patients with Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma

Background and Purpose: Transgenic mice over-expressing Notch2 in the uvea exhibit a hyperplastic ciliary body leading to increased IOP and glaucoma. The aim of this study was to investigate the possible presence of NOTCH2 variants in patients with primary ...

A New Noninvasively Adjustable Glaucoma Drainage Device

Adan Villamarin

Glaucoma is an irreversible disease affecting the eye, leading to progressive loss of vision and eventually to total blindness. It is often related to high intraocular pressure (IOP), which results from increased outflow resistance to aqueous humor. The fi ...

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, ...

3D simulation of the aqueous flow in the human eye

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Sylvain Roy, Adan Villamarin, Philippe Reymond, Orestis Vardoulis, Reda Hasballa

Glaucoma results in an increase in the resistance of the aqueous humor outflow, which in turn leads to an increase of the intraocular pressure (IOP). Several treatments are proposed to reduce and stabilize the IOP that include medications, filtering surger ...
