Effect of integrin α5β1 inhibition on SDF-l/CXCR4- mediated choroidal neovascularization
"AIM: To investigate the roles of integrins in choroidal neovascularization (CNV) and their associations with the stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1)/CXCR4 axis. METHODS: CNV lesions were induced in mice using laser ph...
Endothelial parameters in central and peripheral cornea in patients wearing contact lenses
"AIM: To measure the parameters of endothelium in the central and peripheral parts of the cornea and evaluate the influence of wearing the hard and soft contact lenses on the mentioned parameters. METHODS: A specular mic...
Suitability of open-field autorefractors as pupillometers and instrument design effects
"AIM: To determine the agreement and repeatability of the pupil measurement obtained with VIP-200 (Neuroptics), PowerRef II (Plusoptix), WAM-5500 (Grand Seiko) and study the effects of instrument design on pupillometry....
Insights into the pathogenesis of cystoid macular edema: leukostasis and related cytokines
Cystoid macular edema (CME) is the abnormal collection of intraretinal fluid in the macular region, especially in the inner nuclear and outer plexiform layers. CME leads to severe visual impairment in patients with vario...
Evaluation of outer retinal tubulations in diabetic macular edema underwent anti-VEGF treatment
"AIM: To investigate the incidence and subsequent changes of outer retinal tubulations (ORTs) in diabetic macular edema (DME) underwent anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapy, and to assess the possibilit...
