Organization of lipids in fiber-cell plasma membranes of the eye lens.

Witold K Subczynski1, Laxman Mainali2, Marija Raguz3, William J O'Brien4.   

Abstract

The plasma membrane together with the cytoskeleton forms the only supramolecular structure of the matured fiber cell which accounts for mostly all fiber cell lipids. The purpose of this review is to inform researchers about the importance of the lipid bilayer portion of the lens fiber cell plasma membranes in the maintaining lens homeostasis, and thus protecting against cataract development.
