Bioimage analysis of cell physiology of primary lens epithelial cells from diabetic and non-diabetic cataract patients

Cataract is a multifactorial disease with increasing prevalence with age. Adult diabetics develop cataract earlier. Lens epithelial cells (LECs) exposed to oxidative stress (ROS), increased calcium deposit and membrane damage, undergo apoptosis, which results in lens opacification. Remaining LECs po...
