Lens aging: Effects of crystallins [PDF]
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 2009 The primary function of the eye lens is to focus light on the retina. The major proteins in the lens--alpha, beta, and gamma-crystallins--are constantly subjected to age-related changes such as oxidation, deamidation, truncation, glycation, and methylation. Such age-related modifications are cumulative and affect crystallin structure and function. With

Human Lens β-Crystallin Solubility [PDF]
Journal 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-

A rare case of traumatic subretinal migration of crystalline lens, corroborated histologically
Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2017 Blunt trauma is the most common cause of posterior dislocation of the crystalline lens. We describe a rare case of subretinal migration of crystalline lens through the giant retinal tear following blunt ocular trauma.
