Teleost lens development and degeneration.

International review of cell and molecular biology - 1 Jan 2008

Vihtelic Thomas S

Abstract excerpt

The transparent properties of the lens and its ability to focus light onto the retina are critical for normal vision. Optical clarity of the lens is achieved and maintained by a unique, highly regulated integration of lens cell proliferation and differentiation that persists throughout life. Zebrafish is a powerful genetic model for studying vertebrate lens differentiation and growth because the structural...
