Epithelial stem cell homeostasis in Meibomian gland development, dysfunction, and dry eye disease
JCI Insight, 2021 Dry eye disease affects over 16 million adults in the US, and the majority of cases are due to Meibomian gland dysfunction. Unfortunately, the identity of the stem cells involved in Meibomian gland development and homeostasis is not well elucidated. Here,

Meibomian Gland Morphology Is a Sensitive Early Indicator of Meibomian Gland Dysfunction [PDF]
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 2019 To investigate the relationship between meibomian gland (MG) morphology and clinical dry eye tests in patients with meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD).Cross-sectional study.Total 538 MGD patients and 21 healthy controls.MG loss on meibography images of upper (UL) and lower lids (LL) was graded on a scale of 0 (lowest degree of MG loss) to 3.
