[Normal and pathological cultured lens epithelial cells histochemical study (author's transl)].
The tissue culture of normal or cataractous lens epithelium shows acid glycoproteins, which are stored in biosynthetic granules or homogeneously distributed in the cytoplasmic matrix. These acid glycoproteins, which are not sensitive to hyaluronidase, are increased in the pathological cells. The cytolysis and the lysosomal activity, which is its cause, are also more pronounced in the cataractous cells.
