Cellular Proliferation and Migration of Human Pterygium Cells: Mitomycin Versus Small-Molecule Inhibitors

Conclusions:
In our study, MMC induced cell death in pterygium and conjunctival cell lines, whereas Nutlin had a targeted impact on pterygium cells. Our results implied that MMC inhibited both pterygium cell proliferation and migration through an apoptosis-independent pathway.
