Further observations on the fine structure of the cornea.

چکیده
A summary of the fine structure of presumably normal cornea is presented and is augmented by details not previously published. Certain differences noted between epithelial and endothelial cells are discussed, in view of their possible bearing on the function of these layers. Corneal tissue obtained from patients afflicted loith keratoconus, cornea guttata, or Wilsons disease is compared with normal cornea, and a scarred rabbit cornea is compared with its normal counterpart. The toidespread alterations in fine structure are described and discussed.

Keratoconus experimentally produced in mice using collagenase
Introduction: Keratoconus is a relatively common disease of cornea in which structural changes within the cornea cause it to thin and change to a conical shape and scar at the central portion of cornea. So far, few methods and drug treatments were introduced due to both lack of accepted animal models to induce experimental keratoconus and limitation of research in human considering ethical issu...
متن کاملUltra-Fine Grained Dual-Phase Steels
This paper provides an overview on obtaining low-carbon ultra-fine grained dual-phase steels through rapid intercritical annealing of cold-rolled sheet as improved materials for automotive applications. A laboratory processing route was designed that involves cold-rolling of a tempered martensite structure followed by a second tempering step to produce a fine grained aggregate of ferrite and ca...
متن کاملThe Effect of Lyophilization on Light Transmission of Amniotic Membrane: A Comparison with Rabbit Cornea
Background & Aims: Amniotic membrane persists for a long time after ocular transplantation (as corneal substitute) and can affect light transmission (transparency). The aim of this study was to evaluate the transparency of amniotic membrane after freeze-drying (lyophilization) and to compare the results with transparency of rabbit cornea. Methods: Transparency of rabbits’ corneas and fresh and ...
متن کاملFurther Observations on Blocking Zeros in Linear Muitivariabie systems (RESEARCH NOTE).
While attempting to clarify the confusion concerning the conceptualization of "blocking zeros" in state space in the recent literature, some new observations are made on the relationship between pole-zero cancellation and transmission blocking. An important distinction between uncontrollable and unobservable eigenvalue s is pointed out; and it is argued that the description of a Blocking Zero, ...
متن کاملSubmicroscopic structure of rabbit cornea studied by polarization optics and thermoelasticity.
The present investigation was undertak en to obtain some knowledge about the submicroscopic structure of the cornea based on thermoelastic properties and polarization characteristics. Previous workers b have reported that the cornea exhibits a birefringence of uniaxial type. But as their observations were made in parallel polarized light only, it is desirable to make conoscopic observation as w...
