Anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic effects of N-acetylcysteine in diabetic rat corneal epithelium

Anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic effects of N-acetylcysteine in diabetic rat corneal epithelium

AIM: To characterize the anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic effects of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rat corneal epithelium and human corneal epithelial cells (HCECs) exposed to a high-glucose environment. METHODS: HCECs were incubated in 0, 5, 50 mmol/L glucose m...
