Increased SK3 expression in DM1 lens cells leads to impaired growth through a greater calcium-induced fragility [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Although cataract is a characteristic feature of myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), little is known of the underlying mechanisms. We generated four lens epithelial cell lines derived from DM1 cataracts and two from age-matched, non-DM cataracts. Small-pool
