Evaluation of Global Differential Gene and Protein Expression in Primary Pterygium: S100A8 and S100A9 as Possible Drivers of a Signaling Network
Figure 5
Schematic showing how UV may trigger upstream molecular disturbances such as S100A8 and S100A9, ALDH3A1, and SERPINA2 which result in a cascade of events leading to pterygium progression.
