Molecular solutions to mammalian lens transparency.

P Donaldson1, J Kistler, R T Mathias.   

Abstract

The mammalian lens generates an internal microcirculation that maintains transparency in the avascular lens. Significant progress has been made in characterizing the membrane transport proteins associated with this circulation. By combining physiological and molecular evidence, a more comprehensive understanding of normal lens function and cataractogenesis is emerging.
