Glucocorticoid-Induced Changes in the Global Gene Expression of Lens Epithelial Cells
1 Feb 2005
Abstract excerpt
AIMS: Clinically, steroid use is accompanied by a risk for posterior subcapsular cataracts (PSCs). PSC possibly involves perturbation of lens epithelial cell proliferation and differentiation; however, the underlying mechanism is unknown. In this study, we aimed to characterize changes in gene expression in human lens epithelial cells exposed to glucocorticoid using DNA microarray hybridization. METHODS: Human...
