Angiopoietin-like protein 7 (ANGPTL7)-mediated effects on resident immune cells contribute to neurodegeneration in glaucomatous optic nerve head

Thomas R. Vollmer, Katie Dolan, Chuanxi Xiang, Angela Banks, Eileen M. Cooney, Jessica Heyder, Charles C. King, Joanna Vrouvlianis, Akshata N Gujar, Nathaniel D. Kirkpatrick, Xiaoqiu Wu, Carter Jones, Loren J. Miraglia, Anthony P. Orth, Yubin Qiu, , Christopher W. Wilson

This study shows ANGPTL7 affects immune cells in the optic nerve head, contributing to neurodegeneration in glaucoma, despite no effect on intraocular pressure.

APOE Impacts Lipid Trafficking in Retinal Pigment Epithelium Cells

Sarah E. V. Richards, John T. Demirs, Sandra Jose, Lin Fan, YongYao Xu, Robert Esterberg, Chia Ling Huang, Christopher W. Wilson, Magali Saint‐Geniez, Sha-Mei Liao

This study investigates how APOE variants affect lipid trafficking in RPE cells, finding that APOE knockout and APOE2-expressing cells show lipid transport deficits, while APOE4-expressing cells upregulate APOE in response to lipid challenges.

Protective effect of P2Y receptors antagonism on stress-induced retinal degeneration

Yi Bao, Kyle Bond, Pauline Sarraf, Robert Esterberg, Megan Serpa, Michael Twarog, YongYao Xu, Heather MacLeod, Qian Huang, Magali Saint‐Geniez

This study shows that blocking P2Y receptors with suramin prevents stress-induced RPE and photoreceptor degeneration in vitro and in a zebrafish model.
