Benzalkonium chloride-induced myofibroblastic transdifferentiation of Tenon’s capsule fibroblasts is inhibited by coculture with corneal epithelial cells or by interleukin-10

Benzalkonium chloride (BAC) is used as a preservative in eyedrops but induces subconjunctival fibrosis that can result in failure of glaucoma surgery. Tenon’s capsule fibroblasts in subconjunctival tissue interact with the corneal epithelium through tear fluid. With the use of a coculture system, we...
