...% of the eyes within 5-6 days. Treatment with naproxen resulted in showing a significant preventive effect. The biochemical parameters like glutathione, malonaldehyde or soluble and insoluble protein contents indicate that selenite causes cataract due to oxidative stress. The observations also suggest...

...Konomi Numata; Shigeyoshi Hiraki; Hiroki Yano; Seiji Hayasaka We performed a comparative investigation into differences between albino and pigmented rabbits in respect of intracameral concentrations of ascorbic acid, glutathione and total protein with high-performance liquid chromatography...

...Jeffrey M. Zink; Jack L. Koenig; Theodore R. Williams Near-infrared spectral data of bovine nuclear lens tissue was collected in the 3,500- to 6,500-cm ––1 frequency range. The intensity ratios of the water peak at 5,194 cm ––1 to characteristic protein peaks at 4,862, 4,599, and 4,368 cm ––1 were...

...Constance S. Tsao; Li-Fen Xu; May Young The effect of large intake of dietary ascorbic acid on heat-induced eye lens protein damage has been studied. Male guinea pigs of the Hartley strain were used. Ascorbic acid was administered to the experimental animals in the drinking water. The mean daily...

...R.C. Augusteyn Normal and cataractous lenses contain a highly fluorescent yellow protein which is insoluble in water but soluble in 7 m urea containing 0.01 m mercaptoethanol. The amount of this protein increases with the development of cataracts and this is accompanied by a decrease in the water...

...G. Duncan; A.R. Bushell Details of the colour, protein and cation contents of 36 human cataractous lenses are presented. Although there was generally reasonable agreement between the increasing amount of insoluble material in each lens and deepening nuclear colour (Pirie Groups I-IV), wide...
