Relationship between Aquaporin-1 Protein Expression and Choroidal Thickness during the Recovery of Form-deprivation Myopia in Guinea Pigs.

abstract：:DNA sequence analysis of overlapping shotgun and restriction fragments have revealed the entire sequence of the human lens fiber cell intrinsic membrane protein MP19 gene (also termed MP17, MP18, and MP20). The 8,056 bp MP19 gene contains 5 exons encoding a mature protein of 173 amino acids, which displayed a very hig...
