The molecular genetics of the corneal dystrophies--current status.
Klintworth GK. Klintworth GK. Front Biosci. 2003 May 1;8:d687-713. doi: 10.2741/1018. Front Biosci. 2003. PMID: 12700042 Review.
The pertinent literature on inherited corneal diseases is reviewed in terms of the chromosomal localization and identification of the responsible genes. Disorders affecting the cornea have been mapped to human chromosome 1 (central crystalline corneal dystrophy …

Characteristics of the human ocular surface epithelium.
Kinoshita S, Adachi W, Sotozono C, Nishida K, Yokoi N, Quantock AJ, Okubo K. Kinoshita S, et al. Prog Retin Eye Res. 2001 Sep;20(5):639-73. doi: 10.1016/s1350-9462(01)00007-6. Prog Retin Eye Res. 2001. PMID: 11470454 Review.
Here, we review five important aspects of the human ocular surface epithelium. First, we recognize the discovery of corneal epithelial stem cells, and note how the palisades of Vogt have been suggested as a clinical marker of their presence. ...Third, we touch upon …

Unilateral Meesmann's dystrophy.
Goldberg A, Schlötzer-Schrehardt U, Seiler T. Goldberg A, et al. Int Ophthalmol. 1997;21(3):117-20. doi: 10.1023/a:1026456232212. Int Ophthalmol. 1997. PMID: 9587826 Review.
We report the first case of a unilateral microcystic Meesmann's epithelial dystrophy, observed in the left cornea of a 43-year-old patient. The diagnosis was verified histologically by the unilateral occurrence of a 'peculiar substance' within epithelial …

The molecular genetics of keratin disorders.
Smith F. Smith F. Am J Clin Dermatol. 2003;4(5):347-64. doi: 10.2165/00128071-200304050-00005. Am J Clin Dermatol. 2003. PMID: 12688839 Review.
Keratins are the type I and II intermediate filament proteins which form a cytoskeletal network within all epithelial cells. They are expressed in pairs in a tissue- and differentiation-specific fashion. ...These include ichthyosis bullosa of Siemens (K2e), epidermolytic p …
