Reduced Corneal Innervation in the CD25 Null Model of Sjögren Syndrome

Reduced Corneal Innervation in the CD25 Null Model of Sjögren Syndrome

Decreased corneal innervation is frequent in patients with Sjögren Syndrome (SS). To investigate the density and morphology of the intraepithelial corneal nerves (ICNs), corneal sensitivity, epithelial cell proliferation, and changes in mRNA expression of genes that are involved in autophag...
