The purpose of this paper is to explore the developmental origin, biological characteristics, and association with eye diseases of tissue-resident macrophages in the field of ophthalmology—hyalocytes. The eye is a highly specialized sensory organ that contains the retina, part of the central nervous system, as well as non-neuronal parts like the tr...

The Role of HDAC3 in Retinal Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury Background Retinal ischemia-induced retinal diseases are significant characteristics of common visual impairments such as diabetic retinopathy (DR) and central retinal artery and vein occlusion. The therapeutic effects for these ischemic retinal diseases are generally ineffective, and the des...

Research Background Glaucoma is a major cause of blindness, characterized by complex neurodegenerative conditions that include extensive inflammatory responses in glial cells, accompanied by the progressive loss of Retinal Ganglion Cells (RGCs), optic nerve axons, and synaptic connections. Although there are variations in subtypes, topologies, and ...

Protective effects of CCR5-overexpressing mesenchymal stem cells on experimental autoimmune uveitis Background Introduction Uveitis is an inflammatory eye disease that seriously threatens vision and can lead to complications such as cataracts, glaucoma, vitreous opacities, retinal detachment, and abnormal retinal vasculature. This disease is widesp...

The Key Role of Retina Microglia in Pathological Angiogenesis and the Immunotherapeutic Potential of the cGAS-STING Pathway Background Pathological angiogenesis is common in various neovascular ophthalmic diseases, such as Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) and Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) [1]. During these diseases, bone marrow cells, including r...
