Recent Advances in Ocular Drug Delivery Systems
Transport of drugs applied by traditional dosage forms is restricted to the eye, and therapeutic drug concentrations in the target tissues are not maintained for a long duration since the eyes are protected by a unique anatomy and physiology. For the treatment of the anterior segment of the eye, various droppable products to prolong the retention time on the ocular surface have been introduced ...
متن کاملRecent Advances in Hemophilia Gene Therapy
Heterogeneous loss of function mutations at F8 and F9 genes causes X-linked recessive bleeding disorders, hemophilia A (HA) and hemophilia B (HB), respectively. HA is clinically indistinguishable from HB and accounts for more than 80% of hemophilia cases; the former affects 1/5000 and the latter 1/25000 male births worldwide. In Iran, it is estimated that around 4300 HA and 900 HB patients are ...
متن کاملRecent advances on ocular Demodex infestation.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To summarize recent advances on ocular Demodex infestation. RECENT FINDINGS Demodex infestation is a potential cause of ocular surface inflammation. The pathogenesis of Demodex in eliciting ocular surface inflammation has been further clarified. Cliradex is currently the treatment of choice, it comprises the most active ingredient of tea tree oil, that is terpinen-4-ol, whic...
متن کاملA Summary of Recent Advances in Ocular Inserts and Implants
With the physiological and anatomical constraints put forth by the eye it is a significant challenge to the pharmaceutical scientists to target drugs to the posterior segment of the eye. Severe ocular complications such as glaucoma, uveitis, cytomegalovirus retinitis, cataracts, age related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and retinitis pigmentosa pose urgency for the treatment of oc...
متن کاملRecent Advances: Transglutaminase in Ocular Health and Pathological Processes
Transglutaminase (TG) is a big class of intraand extracellular enzymes with 9 members, all of which catalyze the formation of epsilon(γ-glutamyl) lysine isopeptide linkages between peptide substrates, except for a catalytically inactive member Band 4.1. These enzymes are tightly regulated, and involved in processes such as inflammation, reepithelialization, neovascularization and synthesis and ...
