Removal of Hsf4 leads to cataract development in mice through down-regulation of γS-crystallin and Bfsp expression

BACKGROUND: Heat-shock transcription factor 4 (HSF4) mutations are associated with autosomal dominant lamellar cataract and Marner cataract. Disruptions of the Hsf4 gene cause lens defects in mice, indicating a requirement for HSF4 in fiber cell differentiation during lens development. However, neit...
