3-Dimensional magnetic resonance imaging of the freely moving human eye

Jérôme Yerly, João Pedro Forjaco Jorge, Lorenzo Di Sopra, Josefina Adriana Maria Bastiaansen, Silvio Ionta, Benedetta Franceschiello, David Zeugin

Eye motion is a major confound for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in neuroscience or ophthalmology. Currently, solutions toward eye stabilisation include participants fixating or administration of paralytics/anaesthetics. We developed a novel MRI protoco ...

Enrichment of pathogenic alleles in the brittle cornea gene, ZNF469, in keratoconus

Keratoconus, a common inherited ocular disorder resulting in progressive corneal thinning, is the leading indication for corneal transplantation in the developed world. Genome-wide association studies have identified common SNPs 100 kb upstream of ZNF469 s ...

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 ...

Hes1 regulates corneal development and the function of corneal epithelial stem/progenitor cells

Yann Barrandon

Hes1, a major target gene in Notch signaling, regulates the fate and differentiation of various cell types in many developmental systems. To gain a novel insight into the role of Hes1 in corneal tissue, we performed gain-of-function and loss-of-function st ...

Corneal epithelial cell fate is maintained during repair by Notch1 signaling via the regulation of vitamin A metabolism

Freddy Radtke, Yann Barrandon

Integrity and preservation of a transparent cornea are essential for good vision. The corneal epithelium is stratified and nonkeratinized and is maintained and repaired by corneal stem cells. Here we demonstrate that Notch1 signaling is essential for cell ...

Microfabricated thin film strain gage sensor with telemetry microprocessor embedded in a soft contact lens for minimally invasive intraocular pressure monitoring

Matteo Leonardi

Increased intraocular pressure (IOP) is the leading cause and the hallmark of Glaucoma, an asymptomatic and irreversible degenerative disease that, undetected or untreated, progresses to blindness due to optic nerve atrophy. Glaucoma is the second cause of ...
