Abstract excerpt
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to characterize the early transcriptomic and pathologic changes of Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) using the Col8a2Q455K/Q455K mutant mouse model. Methods: The Col8a2Q455K/Q455K mutant mice were divided into the early-stage (≤2-month-old) group and the late-stage (≥8-month-old) group, based on corneal endothelial changes evaluated by slit-lamp microscopy, optical...
