Over the past several years, many groups worldwide have confirmed the presence of probable disease-causing mutations in the coding region of the (TIGR/MYOC) gene associated with glaucoma. Disease-associated point mutations are often found in the thir

Glucocorticoid (GC) treatment of human trabecular meshwork (HTM) cells produces delayed, progressive cellular and extracellular protein/glycoprotein inductions with characteristics matching those for intraocular pressure elevation with corticosteroid

The frontier of genetic testing in ophthalmology, including the availability of a variety of tests to screen for genetic alterations that appear causally related to the development of glaucoma in adults as well as in children, is advancing. The knowl

Non-viral gene therapy is a potential treatment to many incurable retinal diseases. To fulfill this promise, plasmid DNA must be delivered to the retinal target cells. We evaluated the efficacy of synthetic DNA complexing compounds in transfecting pr

Decreased flow of aqueous humor through the trabecular meshwork (TM) and into Schlemm's canal (SC) is believed to be a predominant factor in the development of the elevated intraocular pressure found in primary open-angle and steroid glaucoma. Recent

Autosomal dominant juvenile open angle glaucoma (JOAG) is an early-onset form of primary open angle glaucoma (POAG), which has been linked to chromosome 1q21-q31. Recently, mutations in the trabecular meshwork inducible glucocorticoid response gene (

Studies of the effects of glucocorticoid (GC) and oxidative stress stimuli in differentiated cultures of human trabecular meshwork (HTM) cells have provided the rationale for our studies of a major new gene termed TIGR (trabecular meshwork inducible

The effects of natriuretic peptides on cGMP formation and [125I]ANP binding in human trabecular meshwork cells were investigated. CNP at 1 microM stimulated cGMP formation approximately 18-25 fold, with a half maximal effective concentration approxim

Thrombin at concentrations as low as 20 p m (0·002 U ml−1) was found to stimulate inositol phosphate levels in cultured human non-pigmented ciliary epithelial cells. Several other proteases, including trypsin and plasmin, had little or no effect,

Anti-inflammatory corticosteroids and β-blockers remain two of the most widely prescribed classes of drugs in ophthalmology despite their well-known ocular and systemic side effects. For corticosteroids, studies of ocular drug levels and corneal ant
