Refsum's disease: electron microscopy of an iris biopsy. [PDF]
Refsum's disease (phytanic acid storage disease) results in an accumulation of lipid as a result of an absence of mitochondrial hydroxylation of phytanic acid. We describe a previously unrecorded electron microscopic study of lipid deposition in the iris pigment epithelium of a patient with Refsum's disease, and lipid was present in other sites within ...

Neuroectoderm-derived iris muscle characterization at the single-cell resolution in native human iris and a pluripotent stem cell eye model [PDF]
How the neuroectoderm-derived eye field breaks symmetry to specify iris muscle is not well understood. Recent studies have begun to transcriptionally characterize mouse iris muscle; however, little is known about the transcriptional foundation of human ...
