Sustained activation of the unfolded protein response induces cell death in Fuchs' endothelial corneal dystrophy [PDF]
Purpose: The unfolded protein response (UPR) is believed to play a role in the pathogenesis of Fuchs' endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD). The purpose of this study was to investigate whether unfolded proteins accumulate in the corneal endothelium in ...
