Changes in Gene Expression in Human Meibomian Gland Dysfunction

3 Mar 2011

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) may be the leading cause of dry eye syndrome throughout the world. However, the precise mechanism(s) underlying the pathogenesis of this disease is unclear. This study was conducted to identify meibomian gland genes that may promote the development and/or progression of human MGD. METHODS: Lid tissues were obtained from male and female MGD patients and age-matched...
