Proton Irradiation Alters Expression of FGF-2 In Human Lens Epithelial CellsWe are investigating a role for proton radiation-induced changes in FGF-2 gene expression as part of the mechanism(s) underlying lens cell injury. Radiation injury to the human lens is associated with the induction of cataract following exposure to protons.
