Torin 1 alleviates impairment of TFEB-mediated lysosomal biogenesis and autophagy in TGFBI (p.G623_H626del)-linked Thiel-Behnke corneal dystrophy
17 Aug 2021
Abstract excerpt
Thiel-Behnke corneal dystrophy (TBCD) is an epithelial-stromal TGFBI dystrophy caused by mutations in the TGFBI (transforming growth factor beta induced) gene, though the underlying mechanisms and pathogenesis of TBCD are still obscure. The study identifies a novel mutation in the TGFBI gene (p.Gly623_His626del) in a TBCD pedigree. Characteristics of the typical vacuole formation, irregular corneal epithelial...
