HKCs also secreted the most aligned type I collagen under T3 treatment, when compared to any condition and cell type.

In contrast, only HKCs expressed high levels of corneal scarring markers, such as type III collagen, which was dramatically reduced with T3.

Targeted mass spectrometry-based metabolomics was performed on HCFs and HKCs with and without quercetin treatment in order to identify variations in metabolite flux.
