Two novel mutations identified in ADCC families impair crystallin protein distribution and induce apoptosis in human lens epithelial cells
13 Dec 2017
Abstract excerpt
Congenital cataract (CC) is a clinical and genetically heterogeneous eye disease that primarily causes lens disorder and even amblyopic blindness in children. As the mechanism underlying CC is genetically inherited, identification of CC-associated gene mutations and their role in protein distribution are topics of both pharmacological and biological research. Through physical and ophthalmic examinations, two...
