Corneal endothelial autoradiography with the scanning electron microscope.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new technique for performing corneal endothelial cell autoradiography with the scanning electron microscope is presented. The scanning electron microscope is able to detect silver grains deposited over tritiated thymidine--labeled nuclei of regenerating corneal endothelium.

Effect of hypothermic perfusion on corneal endothelial morphology.
The effect of moderate in-vivo hypothermic perfusion on corneal endothelial integrity was studied in the cat. Eleven cats underwent in-vivo anterior chamber perfusion for 30 minutes with either normothermic (23 degrees C) or hypothermic (5 degrees C) perfusate. Corneas were then evaluated clinically (biomicroscopy), functionally (vital staining), and morphologically (scanning electron microscop...
متن کاملPhorbol ester modulation of rabbit corneal endothelial permeability.
PURPOSE Phorbol esters have been shown to have a profound influence on cellular activity in many cell types. The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of phorbol esters on the function and structure of corneal endothelial cells. METHODS Corneas were placed under a specular microscope, and the endothelium was superfused with glutathione bicarbonate Ringer's solution (GBR); with GB...
متن کاملScanning electron microscopy of corneal graft rejection: epithelial rejection, endothelial rejection, and formation of posterior graft membranes.
Penetrating corneal homografts were performed in rabbits for the purpose of making, surface studies ivith the scanning electron microscope at various stages of rejection. The rejection of graft epithelium was characterized by a disruption and breakdown of its normal structure in an area 60 to 80 nm. in width. Desquamated cells, pits, and craters were observed in the area of rejection which move...
متن کاملEffects of ultrasound on the corneal endothelium: II. The endothelial repair process.
The responses of corneal endothelium to a 2-minute exposure of ultrasound from a clinical phacoemulsification device have been studied by specular microscopy and both scanning and transmission electron microscope. Healing of lesions occurred in two ways, and these were related to lesion size. Small lesions healed by a process of rosette formation, and large lesions were repaired by a process of...
متن کاملEffect of carbachol on rabbit corneal endothelium.
We investigated the current reformulation of the commercially available intraocular preparation of carbachol for its effect on corneal thickness and endothelial cell ultrastructure. A 15-minute perfusion in the specular microscope with 0.01% carbachol caused a significant increase in the corneal swelling rate, which returned to control values after 75 minutes of reperfusion with Krebs Ringer bi...
