ALDH3A1 Plays a Functional Role in Maintenance of Corneal Epithelial Homeostasis.

ALDH3A1 Plays a Functional Role in Maintenance of Corneal Epithelial Homeostasis.

Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) and ALDH3A1 are corneal crystallins. They protect inner ocular tissues from ultraviolet radiation (UVR)-induced oxidative damage through catalytic and non-catalytic mechanisms. Additionally, ALDH3A1 has been postulated to play a regulatory role in the corneal epi...
