Disease relevance of Trabecular Meshwork

 

High impact information on Trabecular Meshwork

  • A gene encoding a trabecular meshwork protein (TIGR) mapped to the narrowest disease interval by STS content and radiation hybrid mapping [6].
  • In the human eye, optimedin is expressed in the retina and the trabecular meshwork [7].
  • CYP1B1 gene has previously been mapped within the GLC3A candidate region and its expression in the trabecular meshwork cells has been demonstrated in this study [8].
  • Human trabecular meshwork cells isolated from the eye were plated on type III 7-10 repeats of fibronectin (alpha5beta1 ligand) in the absence or presence of the heparin (Hep) II domain of fibronectin [9].
  • This novel pathway demonstrates a cooperative, rather than antagonistic, role between alpha5beta1 and alpha4beta1 integrins and suggests that interactions between the Hep II domain and alpha4beta1 integrin could modulate the strength of cytoskeleton-mediated processes in the trabecular meshwork of the human eye [9].
