A novel mutation in PRPF31, causative of autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa, using the BGISEQ-500 sequencer
"AIM: To study the genes responsible for retinitis pigmentosa. METHODS: A total of 15 Chinese families with retinitis pigmentosa, containing 94 sporadically afflicted cases, were recruited. The targeted sequences were ca...
Tranilast inhibits TGF-β-induced collagen gel contraction mediated by human corneal fibroblasts
"AIM: To determine if tranilast affects human corneal fibroblast (HCFs) contraction. METHODS: HCFs cultured in a three-dimensional type I collagen gel were treated with or without transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β)...
Clinical characteristics of sibling patients with comitant strabismus
"AIM: To investigate the clinical characteristics of sibling patients with comitant strabismus. METHODS: Sibling patients who were diagnosed with comitant strabismus from January 2005 to December 2014 were retrospectivel...
Bioinformatics analysis of microarray data to explore the key genes involved in HSF4 mutation-induced cataract
"AIM: To reveal the mechanisms of heat-shock transcription factor 4 (HSF4) mutation-induced cataract. METHODS: GSE22362, including 3 HSF4-null lens and 3 wild-type lens, was obtained from Gene Expression Omnibus database...
Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty in phakic eyes: incision modification reducing cataract formation
"AIM: To evaluate the efficacy of a technical modification to reduce the incidence of traumatic cataract induced by Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) performed in phakic eyes. METHODS: A retro...
