Uniaxially aligned, porous collagen-GAG scaffolds for in vitro modeling of trabecular meshwork
… aqueous humor through the trabecular meshwork (TM). The trabecular meshwork is a complex, three dimensional tissue in the eye composed of organized layers of TM cells in an extracellular matrix consisting primarily of collagen and glycosaminoglycan (GAG). Many groups have been studying TM cells …

Identification of Actin Binding Proteins Associated with Cross-Linked Actin Networks
… network (CLANs). Human trabecular meshwork ™ cells were cultured to confluence and treated with dexamethasone or vehicle for 14 days. Total RNA was extracted for gene expression analysis to confirm steroid-induced expression of actin binding proteins in human TM cells. Western blots confirmed …

Phenotypic Characterization of Segmental Human Trabecular Meshwork Cells
… outflow is segmental in the trabecular meshwork (TM) with regions of high-flow (HF) or low-flow (LF) that vary in molecular signature, biomechanics, and response to pressure in both normal and glaucoma eyes. We sought to investigate whether cells in these regions (1) deposit distinct extracellular …

Development of New Regeneration Methods in Animal Models with Chronic Tympanic membrane Perforations Using Tissue Engineering Techniques
Tympanic Membrane (TM) perforation, in particular chronic otitis media, is one of the most frequent clinical problems in the otolaryngology field, which sometimes presents conductive healing loss. This study consists of three purposes and experiments; 1) we developed new animal models for chronic …

Development of water-insoluble chitosan patch scaffold for regeneration of tympanic membranes
Tympanic membrane (TM) perforation is a common problem in otology. Perforated TM can be managed with an appliance of paper patch, myringoplasty, or tympanoplasty. A paper patch is not biocompatible having low flexibility and the other operations need aseptic surgical environment. A novel …
