Abstract excerpt

We discovered a mutant mouse, RCT (Rinshoken cataract), with a new congenital cataract in strain SJL/J. The opacity of the lens associated with microphthalmia could be observed visually at 3 to 3.5 months of age. Marked degeneration of the lens, including loss of the fine structure of the lens fibers and swelling of epithelial cells with vacuoles of various sizes in the cortex, but no other defects except...
