Published in 2018 at "Expert Opinion on Pharmacotherapy"

DOI: 10.1080/14656566.2018.1448060

Abstract: ABSTRACT Introduction: Pharmacotherapy with visual cycle modulators (VCMs) is under investigation for retinitis pigmentosa (RP), Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA), Stargardt macular dystrophy (SMD) and nonexudative age-related macular degeneration (AMD), all blinding diseases that lack effective… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine"

DOI: 10.1111/jcmm.16569

Abstract: Ageing presents adverse effects on the retina and is the primary risk factor for age‐related macular degeneration (AMD). We report the first RNA‐seq analysis of age‐related transcriptional changes in the human retinal pigment epithelium (RPE),… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Biomedical optics express"

DOI: 10.1364/boe.455783

Abstract: Photoreceptors are the key functional cell types responsible for the initiation of vision in the retina. Phototransduction involves isomerization and conversion of vitamin A compounds, known as retinoids, and their recycling through the visual cycle.… read more here.
