Abstract
To explore the distinct expression and diverse roles of IL-36 cytokines in dry eye disease using an in vitro hyperosmolarity model of human corneal epithelial cells (HCECs). Primary HCECs were cultured from fresh donor limbal explants. Hyperosmolarity model was established by switching HCECs from isosmotic (312 mOsM) to hyperosmotic medium (350–500 mOsM) alone or with addition of rhIL-36RA or rhIL-38 for 2–48 h. Some cultures were treated with...
