Abstract
• Background: The interaction between different cells plays an important role in many physiological and pathological processes. Since the proliferation of fibroblasts is very much involved in the pathogenesis of eye diseases such as proliferative vitreoretinopathy, the failure of filtration in glaucoma surgery, etc., we attempted to ascertain whether iris pigment epithelial cells (IPE) have some modulating effect on fibroblast proliferation.Keywords
