Previous studies have reported that topical exposure to the toll-like receptor (TLR) 9 ligand CpG-ODN causes widespread ocular inflammation, including retinal microglial activation and posterior segment inflammation. Here we sought to determine the e

Ocular antigens are sequestered behind the blood-retina barrier and the ocular environment protects ocular tissues from autoimmune attack. The signals required to activate autoreactive T cells and allow them to cause disease in the eye remain in part

We have previously shown that the optic nerve of mice becomes increasingly vulnerable to injury with advancing age. Here, we investigated whether regular exercise can modify this age-related vulnerability and improve optic nerve recovery after injury

There has been considerable debate about whether dendritic cells (DCs), which are potent antigen-presenting cells pivotal to adaptive immune responses, are present in CNS parenchyma. In studies aimed at answering this issue, we discovered that while

OBJECTIVE—The spondyloarthropathies (such as ankylosing spondylitis) are multi-system inflammatory diseases that frequently result in uveitis, or intra-ocular eye inflammation. Despite the common co-occurrence of uveitis with arthritis, there has b

PURPOSE To induce chronic intraocular pressure (IOP) elevation in rat eyes by circumlimbal suture. METHODS Anesthetized (isoflurane) Long-Evans rats underwent unilateral circumlimbal suture implantation while the fellow eyes served as untreated contr

The aim of the present study was to determine the capacity of resident corneal and limbal dendritic cells (DC) and macrophages to capture antigen (Ag) in vivo and compare this to their capacity in vitro to take up Ag during organ culture conditions.

Anterior chamber-associated immune deviation (ACAID) is an animal model of tolerance induced experimentally by the injection of antigen into the anterior chamber of the eye. The unusual deviant immune response has both afferent and efferent arms and

Experimental autoimmune uveoretinitis (EAU) is a widely used experimental animal model of human endogenous posterior uveoretinitis. In the present study, we performed in vivo imaging of the retina in transgenic reporter mice to investigate dynamic ch

PURPOSE The distribution, density, and phenotype of hyalocytes or vitreous macrophages in mouse eyes was examined during normal aging and in models of background diabetic retinopathy, retinal vascular proliferation, and exposure to TLR4 and TLR9 liga
