New Nature Communications paper: Elevated IOP causes vein-specific BRB breakdown in glaucoma, associated with MFSD2A loss and increased endothelial transcytosis. Stabilizing endothelial β-catenin reduced leakage and mitigated neurodegeneration. nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

Intraocular pressure induced blood retinal barrier compromise in mouse models and human glaucoma

Nature Communications - Glaucoma is a common cause of vision loss. Here the authors show that elevated intraocular pressure disrupts the blood retinal barrier (BRB) and contributes to retinal...

This article was just published in Nature Communications. Congrats, @cubical and @SimonJohnLab! Hard work pays off! nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

FYN regulates aqueous humor outflow and IOP through the phosphorylation of VE-CADHERIN

Nature Communications - In the eye, intraocular pressure (IOP) regulation is critical for proper vision. High IOP can result in glaucoma a blinding disease. Here the authors show that tyrosine...

👁️Our latest preprint is out! We reveal an exciting, previously overlooked mechanism contributing to glaucoma pathogenesis: IOP-induced blood-retinal barrier breakdown. Check it out here: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

IOP-induced blood-retinal barrier compromise contributes to RGC death in glaucoma

The integrity of the blood-retinal barrier (BRB) has been largely unexplored in glaucoma. We reveal that elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) partially compromises the BRB in two human-relevant...

TLR4 deficiency does not alter glaucomatous progression in a mouse model of chronic glaucoma

Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) is a pattern-recognition transmembrane receptor that induces neuroinflammatory processes in response to...

Paper Alert- new preprint dropped- awesome collab with @LadyGlaucoma and @SimonJohnLab - multimodal sequence profiling of the mouse #Schlemmscanal and more-tweetorial to follow!! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Transcriptomic profiling of Schlemm’s canal cells reveals a lymphatic-biased identity and three...

Schlemm’s canal (SC) is central in intraocular pressure regulation but requires much characterization. It has distinct inner and outer walls, each composed of Schlemm’s canal endothelial cells (SECs)...
