The eye lens cytoskeleton [PDF]
Eye, 1999 During lens cell differentiation there are a number of very characteristic morphological changes that occur. These include a 50- to 100-fold increase in cell length as the equatorial lens epithelial cells differentiate into fibre cells and the loss of the cellular organelles such as mitochondria, nuclei, Golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum ...
