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/s4146…
🧐New study: pyruvate and related metabolites may boost resilience to glaucoma in individuals with high genetic risk. Read the article here: elifesciences.org/reviewed-prepr…
This article was just published in Nature Communications. Congrats, @cubical and @SimonJohnLab! Hard work pays off! nature.com/articles/s4146…
👁️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/10.110…
