Expression of visual system homeobox 1 in human keratoconus

Expression of visual system homeobox 1 in human keratoconus

AIM: To investigate the expression of visual system homeobox 1 (VSX1) and myofibroblast marker alpha smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) in keratoconus (KC). METHODS: Thirty corneal tissue were collected from KC patients after corneal transplantation and 15 normal donor corneas were obtained. All corneal t...
