Abstract: ABSTRACT We recently discovered that the anti‐glaucoma pharmaceuticals timolol, a &bgr; adrenergic antagonist, and pilocarpine, a cholinergic compound, negatively influence the morphology, proliferative capacity and survival of human meibomian gland epithelial cells (HMGECs). We hypothesize… read more here.
