Adenoma of the nonpigmented ciliary epithelium.
PURPOSE To report the clinicopathologic features of an adenoma of the nonpigmented ciliary epithelium. DESIGN Single interventional case report. METHODS. A nonpigmented iris and ciliary body tumor was diagnosed in a 66-year-old woman who complained of blurred vision related to a unilateral cataract. A combined cataract surgery and partial lamellar sclerouvectomy was performed. RESULTS Histo...
متن کاملStudies on bicarbonate transporters and carbonic anhydrase in porcine nonpigmented ciliary epithelium.
PURPOSE Bicarbonate transport plays a role in aqueous humor (AH) secretion. The authors examined bicarbonate transport mechanisms and carbonic anhydrase (CA) in porcine nonpigmented ciliary epithelium (NPE). METHODS Cytoplasmic pH (pH(i)) was measured in cultured porcine NPE loaded with BCECF. Anion exchanger (AE), sodium bicarbonate cotransporter (NBC), and CA were examined by RT-PCR and imm...
متن کاملNonpigmented cells of the rabbit ciliary body epithelium. Tissue culture and voltage-gated currents.
The aqueous humor of the eye is thought to be secreted by the epithelium of the ciliary body. This epithelium has been difficult to study, in part because of its complicated morphology. The authors attempted to circumvent this difficulty by growing the epithelial cells in tissue culture. A procedure is described for producing pure primary cultures of rabbit nonpigmented ciliary body epithelial ...
متن کاملAdenoma of nonpigmented ciliary epithelium with smooth muscle differentiation.
A 35-year-old man underwent successful iridocyclectomy for a ciliary body mass that was subluxating the lens and causing a secondary cataract. Histopathologically the mass proved to be a spindle cell tumor, but leiomyoma and melanoma were initially considered to be diagnostic possibilities. However, further studies and immunohistochemical studies revealed that the tumor probably arose from the ...
متن کاملHuman ciliary body epithelium in culture.
Human ciliary body epithelial cells have been maintained in vitro and have been partially characterized by the determination of growth rate, morphology, and ultrastructural parameters. The dissection technique employed allows the separation of pure ciliary body epithelium with a predominance of cells being from the nonpigmented layer. Growth curves indicate this cell population follows a prolon...
