X-Ray Scattering Used to Map the Preferred Collagen Orientation in the Human Cornea and Limbus
Open accessAbstract
Many properties of connective tissues are governed by the organization of the constituent collagen. For example, the organization of collagen in the cornea and the limbus, where the cornea and sclera meet, is an important determinant of corneal curvature and hence of the eye's focusing power. We have used synchrotron X-ray scattering to map the orientation of the collagen fibrils throughout the human cornea, limbus, and adjacent sclera. We demonstrate a preferred orientation of collagen in the vertical and horizontal directions that is maintained to within about 1 mm from the limbus, where a circular or tangential disposition of fibrils occurs. The data are also used to map the relative distribution of both the total and the preferentially aligned collagen in different parts of the tissue, revealing considerable anisotropy. The detailed structural information provided is an important step toward understanding the shape and the mechanical properties of the tissue.

“Maurice and colleagues initially employed X‐rays to investigate structural features pertaining to the arrangement of collagen fibers in corneal tissues, enabling the quantification of the orientation and content of collagen fibers across the cornea and limbus, with changes in fiber arrangement being readily detected via X‐ray scattering patterns.[ 94 , 105 , 111 ]”

“although water distribution from central cornea to limbus is not known for human corneas, it seems likely that alterations in tissue thickness are due to an increase in the amount of collagen in the peripheral stroma (Aghamohammadzadeh et al., 2004, Boote et al., 2011, Henriksson et al., 2012).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
