Research of controlling genes of lens epithelial cell apoptosis and cataract

Abstract:

Cataract is one of the most common eye diseases causing blind,lens epithelial cell apoptosis is the cellular basis of all kinds of cataract except congenital cataract. Recent studies have shown that:a variety of regulatory genes involved in lens epithelial cell apoptosis. This article reviewed the recent advances in the researches on lens epithelial cell apoptosis and cataract.
