A Theoretical Approach for the Electrochemical Characterization of Ciliary Epithelium

A Theoretical Approach for the Electrochemical Characterization of Ciliary Epithelium

The ciliary epithelium (CE) is the primary site of aqueous humor (AH) production, which results from the combined action of ultrafiltration and ionic secretion. Modulation of ionic secretion is a fundamental target for drug therapy in glaucoma, and therefore it is important to identify the main fact...
