Figure 5From: αA-crystallin R49Cneomutation influences the architecture of lens fiber cell membranes and causes posterior and nuclear cataracts in mice Posterior lens defects in R49C neo knock-in mouse lenses. Lens sections were stained with toluidine blue and examined by bright field microscopy. (A) Lens posterior in 3-month-old wild type mouse appeared normal. (B) Lens posterior of a 3-month-old R49Cneo/R49Cneo homozygous mouse showed a ruptured posterior capsule.Back to article page
