Immunohistochemical and Western blotting analyses showed that TRPV2 expression levels were significantly increased in the lens epithelial cells of patients with diabetic cataracts as compared with senile cataract, as well as in both a human lens epithelial cell line (HLEpiC) and primary rat lens epithelial cells (RLEpiCs) cultured under high-glucose conditions. Here, TRPV2 is linked to Age-related cataract.
