The TCF4 Gene Regulates Apoptosis of Corneal Endothelial Cells in Fuchs Endothelial Corneal Dystrophy
6 Mar 2025
Abstract excerpt
Purpose: Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) is a progressive corneal disorder characterized by excessive extracellular matrix (ECM) accumulation and corneal endothelial cell death. CTG trinucleotide repeat expansion in the transcription factor 4 (TCF4) gene represents the most significant genetic risk factor. This study aimed to elucidate the role of TCF4 in FECD pathogenesis through comprehensive...
