2',3'‐Cyclic‐nucleotide 3'‐phosphodiesterase contributes to epithelial‐mesenchymal transition of lens epithelial cells through the notch signalling pathway

Objectives Fibrosis is a complex process involved in multiple diseases that result in organ injury and failure. Cataract, one common form of ocular fibrosis, is a main cause of blindness worldwide, and surgery may be the only cure. In this regard, epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) of lens epithelial cells (LECs) is the primary cause of anterior subcapsular cataract (ASC). This study aimed to investigate the mechanism by which...
