Mao X, Zhang Y, Schwend T, Conrad G
Dev Biol
. 2014 Dec;
398(2):193-205.
PMID: 25478909
Sensory trigeminal growth cones innervate the cornea in a coordinated fashion during embryonic development. Polysialic acid (polySia) is known for its important roles during nerve development and regeneration. The purpose...

Zhang Y, Mao X, Schwend T, Littlechild S, Conrad G
Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci
. 2013 Jan;
54(2):1014-25.
PMID: 23322569
Purpose: Extracellular matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are thought to play a crucial role in corneal degradation associated with the pathological progression of keratoconus. Currently, corneal cross-linking by riboflavin and ultraviolet A...

Schwend T, Deaton R, Zhang Y, Caterson B, Conrad G
Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci
. 2012 Nov;
53(13):8118-37.
PMID: 23132805
Purpose: Sensory trigeminal nerve growth cones innervate the cornea in a highly coordinated fashion. The purpose of this study was to determine if extracellular matrix glycosaminoglycans (ECM-GAGs), including keratan sulfate...

Littlechild S, Zhang Y, Tomich J, Conrad G
Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci
. 2012 Aug;
53(10):5991-6003.
PMID: 22879413
Purpose: Tissue glue containing fibrinogen (FIB) and riboflavin (RF), upon exposure to long wavelength ultraviolet light (UVA, 365 nM) has been proposed potentially to solve long-standing problems presented by corneal...

Littlechild S, Brummer G, Zhang Y, Conrad G
Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci
. 2012 May;
53(7):4011-20.
PMID: 22589434
Purpose: Laser-assisted in situ keratomileus (LASIK) creates a permanent flap that remains non-attached to the underlying laser-modified stroma. This lack of permanent adhesion is a liability. To immobilize a corneal...

Zhang Y, Sukthankar P, Tomich J, Conrad G
Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci
. 2012 Mar;
53(6):2620-9.
PMID: 22447859
Purpose: To investigate the effect of the peptide NC-1059 on riboflavin (RF) diffusion across an intact corneal epithelium into the stroma. Methods: NC-1059 peptide was synthesized by solid-phase synthesis with...

Mol Vis
. 2012 Feb;
18:348-61.
PMID: 22355246
Purpose: To investigate the development and mineralization of avian scleral ossicles using fluorescence microscopy in combination with field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). Methods: The...

Mao X, Schwend T, Conrad G
Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci
. 2012 Jan;
53(3):1234-43.
PMID: 22281821
Purpose: To assay for expression and localization of neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) and polysialic acid (polySia) in the chick cornea during embryonic and postnatal development. Methods: Real time quantitative...

Schwend T, Lwigale P, Conrad G
Dev Biol
. 2012 Jan;
363(1):115-27.
PMID: 22236962
The cornea, the most densely innervated tissue on the surface of the body, becomes innervated in a series of highly coordinated developmental events. During cornea development, chick trigeminal nerve growth...

Brummer G, Littlechild S, McCall S, Zhang Y, Conrad G
Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci
. 2011 Jul;
52(9):6363-9.
PMID: 21724915
Purpose: Corneal cross-linking (CXL) is a treatment for keratoconus that eliminates the need for keratoplasty in most patients. However, its molecular mechanisms remain under study. Advanced glycation end products (AGEs)...
