Glycogene Expression in Conjunctiva of Patients with Dry Eye: Downregulation of Notch Signaling
26 May 2009
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Glycoconjugates regulate a variety of biological events in mucosal surfaces, such as differentiation of postmitotic epithelial cells and maintenance of the wet-surfaced phenotype. This study aimed to identify the repertoire of genes (glycogenes) involved in biosynthesis of glycoconjugates in conjunctiva of normal subjects and patients with dry eye. METHODS: RNA from conjunctival impression cytology...
