Molecular and functional mapping of regional differences in P2Y receptor expression in the rat lens (2008)
Journal Article

Extracellular ATP has been shown to mobilize intracellular Ca2+ in cultured ovine lens epithelial cells and in human lens epithelium, suggesting a role for purines in the modulation of lens transparency. In this study, we characterized the expression... Read More about Molecular and functional mapping of regional differences in P2Y receptor expression in the rat lens.

Differentiation-dependent changes in the membrane properties of fiber cells isolated from the rat lens (2008)
Journal Article

Impedance measurements in whole lenses showed that lens fiber cells possess different permeability properties to the epithelial cells from which they differentiate. To confirm these observations at the cellular level, we analyzed the membrane propert...
