Estrogen Protects Lenses against Cataract Induced by Transforming Growth Factor-β (TGFβ)
Cataract, already a major cause of visual impairment and blindness, is likely to become an increasing problem as the world population ages. In a previous study, we showed that transforming growth factor-β (TGFβ) induces rat lenses in culture to develop opacities and other changes that have many feat...
