Expression of mRNAs, miRNAs, and lncRNAs in Human Trabecular Meshwork Cells Upon Mechanical Stretch.

To our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of the differential expression of coding and non-coding RNAs in a single set of cells subjected to cyclic mechanical stretch.

Composition of Exfoliation Material.

The protein core contains a wide variety of proteins, including basement membrane proteins, elastic fiber proteins, latent TGFβ proteins, metalloproteinases, chaperone proteins, complement proteins, lysyl oxidase-like 1 (LOXL1), and apolipoprotein E (ApoE).

lncRNAs, DNA Methylation, and the Pathobiology of Exfoliation Glaucoma.

This review briefly introduces the roles of long noncoding RNAs and DNA methylation in disease pathogenesis, and highlights some of the cutting edge work that has been carried out in PD and AD, along with the limited but important studies in XFG.
