Cataract prevention in diabetic Octodon degus with Pfizer's sorbinil.

M B Datiles1, H Fukui.   

Abstract

The Octodon degus has been reported to have higher aldose reductase activity in the lens compared to the gerbil and rat. When made diabetic the degus develop cataracts within 4 weeks. We have been able to completely prevent cataract formation in diabetic degus using Pfizer's sorbinil for up to 6 months. This is further evidence of the role of aldose reductase in the formation of cataracts in diabetes.
