MicroRNA-204-5p Regulates Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition during Human Posterior Capsule Opacification by Targeting SMAD4
7 Dec 2012
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To investigate the role of microRNA (miRNA) in regulating epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) during human posterior capsule opacification (PCO). METHODS: A miRCURY LNA microRNA array was used to evaluate the miRNA profiles of human PCO tissues and normal attached lens epithelial cells (LECs). An in vitro human donor capsular bag model was used to investigate the role of miRNAs in the EMT during...
