Changes in Human Tear Proteome Following Topical Treatment of Dry Eye Disease: Cyclosporine A Versus Diquafosol Tetrasodium.

abstract：Purpose:To investigate the underlying mechanisms for how the mouse Cx50-R205G point mutation, a homologue of the human Cx50-R198W mutation that is linked to cataract-microcornea syndrome, affects proper lens growth and fiber cell differentiation to lead to severe lens phenotypes. Methods:EdU labeling, immunostaining, ...
