Aquaporin-1 down regulation associated with inhibiting cell viability and inducing apoptosis of human lens epithelial cells
AIM: To investigate the role of Aquaporin-1 (AQP-1) in lens epithelial cells (LECs) and its potential target genes. AQP-1 is specifically expressed in LECs of eyes and is significant for lens homeostasis and transparency maintenance. Herein, AQP-1 expression in LECs was investigated to evaluate its...
