cataract ( J:196645 )

• at 10 weeks

• however, mice also expression a transgene containing the endogenous gene do not develop cataracts during the 6 month observation period

abnormal lens morphology ( J:5481 , J:6014 )

• histological analysis shows slower than normal loss of lens cell nuclei, especially in the bow area, by 7 days of age (J:5481)

• persistence of cell nuclei in the bow area is noteable at 12-13 days of age (J:5481)

• there is a decrease in crystallin and leakage of crystallin from the lens (J:6014)

abnormal lens fiber morphology ( J:5481 )

• distal portions of many fibers swell and become hydropic

• at 20-23 days of age lens fibers are disintegrating posterior to the center of the lens with histology showing broken cell borders, many vacuoles and large swollen cells

hydropic eye lens fibers ( J:5481 )

cataract ( J:5481 )

• an opaque spot first appears in mutant mice between 16 to 22 days of age

• the whole lens is opaque by 4-5 weeks of age
