Deletion of <i>Fgfr2</i> in Ductal Basal Epithelium With Tamoxifen Induces Obstructive Meibomian Gland Dysfunction

Our results substantiated the crucial role of Fgfr2 in homeostasis of the MG ductal epithelium. Deletion of Fgfr2 affects the MG ductal basal progenitors by impacting the differentiation of ductal meibocytes and the maintenance of acinar meibocytes, which are likely the underlying pathogenesis of obstructive MGD.

Abstract

Our results substantiated the crucial role of Fgfr2 in homeostasis of the MG ductal epithelium. Deletion of Fgfr2 affects the MG ductal basal progenitors by impacting the differentiation of ductal meibocytes and the maintenance of acinar meibocytes, which are likely the underlying pathogenesis of obstructive MGD.
