Human Lens β-Crystallin Solubility [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2000
The human lens is composed primarily of water and proteins called crystallins. Insolubility of these crystallins is correlated with aging and cataractogenesis. The alpha-crystallins have chaperone-like activity in maintaining the solubility of denatured beta- and gamma-crystallins. One established test of this chaperone activity is the ability of alpha-

Subtle changes of the crystalline lens after cycloplegia: a retrospective study

open access: yesBMC Ophthalmology, 2021
Background The purpose of this study was to evaluate the shape of the crystalline lens in terms of biometry and diopters before and after cycloplegia using the CASIA2 swept-source (SS) optical coherence tomography (OCT) system on the anterior segment ...

Second-order Nonlinear Optical Microscopy of Spider Silk [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Asymmetric $\rm \beta$-sheet protein structures in spider silk should induce nonlinear optical interaction such as second harmonic generation (SHG) which is experimentally observed for a radial line and dragline spider silk by using an imaging ...

Finite element study of the accommodation behaviour of the crystalline lens after fs-laser treatment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
With aging the ability of the crystalline lens to adapt to different viewing distances decreases. Until now there is no satisfying treatment available.

Research progress of lens zonules

open access: yesAdvances in Ophthalmology Practice and Research, 2023
Background: The lens zonule, a circumferential system of fibres connecting the ciliary body to the lens, is responsible for centration of the lens.

Haze Estimation of Crystalline Lens by Contrast Sensitivity as a Function of Scattering Light Intensity

open access: yesi-Perception, 2011
Cataract is one of the most typical age-related eye diseases. As the cataract progresses, the crystalline lens becomes hazier and the visual ability deteriorates.
