Primary cultures of epithelial cells were prepared from freshly enucleated globes. At confluence, all experimental cultures received a single dose of preservative at the concentration present in marketed formulations. The serum in the culture medium simulated the possible neutralizing effect of proteins present in the tear film in vivo. The cells were observed continuously by phase-contrast microscopy and time-lapse videomicrography for 24 hrs. Benzalkonium chloride at a concentration of 0.01% and chlorobutanol at 0.5% caused immediate cell retraction, as well as cessation of normal cytokinesis, cell movement, and mitotic activity; the epithelial cells degenerated within 2 hrs and 8 hrs, respectively. Cultures treated with chlorobutanol developed conspicuous blebs on the cell surface after 3 to 5 hrs of exposure. Thimerosal (0.001%) caused cell retraction, cessation of mitotic activity, and total cell destruction within 9 hrs. Sorbic acid (0.1% and 0.2%) greatly reduced cell movement and suppressed mitotic activity, but no cell death occurred. At concentrations of 50 ppm and 30 ppm, H2O2 instantaneously caused a marked retraction of the cells, followed by cessation of cytokinesis, cell movement, and mitosis. Retraction and death of the epithelial cells occurred within 12-24 hrs after exposure to 1 ppm H2O2 in serum-free medium. Polyquaternium ammonium chloride (0.001%) and polyaminopropyl biguanide (0.00005%) had no discernible effects on cytokinetic movement or on the mitotic activity of the epithelial cells.

Diabetes caused a 4-5 fold increase in gamma-crystallin in both aqueous and vitreous humours. Diabetes also led to a significant loss of body weight, and decrease in lens ATP levels. Addition of vitamin A to the diet resulted in reduction in gamma-crystallin leakage into the aqueous and vitreous humours. Vitamin A at 12,500 iu/kg food resulted in an increase in lens ATP for the diabetic rats.

About 25% of the vitreous humor was replaced with the test oil, and fluorophotometric determinations made after intravenous fluorescein at intervals after oil injection. The short-term studies revealed a uniform disturbance of the eye at 24 hours after oil injection that probably represents the physical disturbance of the eye during injection. For most oils the readings on day 4 and day 7 after oil injection revealed no difference between the experimental and the paired control eye. Adatomed 5000 cps oil and a Japanese 1000 cps oil caused more sustained aqueous humor fluorescein values over the first week. Longer-term studies, with two oils shown in prior studies on corneal endothelium to increase permeability and one oil that had no influence on endothelial permeability, revealed no effects on fluorescein penetration into any ocular compartment.

Mechanical trauma is usually considered to be the most significant factor in corneal endothelial damage during cataract surgery resulting in postoperative corneal edema. However, corneal decompensation out of proportion to the degree of trauma seen during surgery does occur. These cases of unexpected corneal edema can often be traced to unrecognized preoperative endothelial dysfunction or to toxicity of intraocular medications used during surgery. This paper reviews the role of viscoelastics in reducing surgical trauma, their toxicity, and the risks of toxicity inherent in the use of re-usable cannulas and irrigating solution additives. Disposable cannulas should be used whenever possible. The use of re-usable cannulas with viscoelastics is highly likely to result in toxic residues being introduced onto the eye, and must be avoided. Irrigating solution additives should be tested with in-vitro human donor cornea perfusions prior to clinical use.</p>","PeriodicalId":17964,"journal":{"name":"Lens and eye toxicity research","volume":"9 3-4","pages":"351-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12476247","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Z-DNA antigen was prepared against poly(dG-dC).poly(dG-dC), which had been converted to the Z-helix conformation in high salt and then stabilized by bromination. Circular dichroism (CD) spectra confirmed the presence of left-handed Z-helix DNA. Antibodies to Z-DNA were raised in three rabbits immunized with brominated (Br-) poly(dG-dC).poly(dG-dC). These antibodies do not cross-react with polynucleotides in the B-helical form, but are specific to the left-handed Z-DNA conformation. DNA was isolated from three different regions of the calf lens. Anti-Z-DNA antisera, affinity purified IgG polyclonal anti-Z-DNA antibodies and monoclonal anti-Z-DNA antibodies were used as immunoprobes to detect the presence of S-DNA sequences. DNA from the cortex region of the lens reacted strongly with the anti-Z-DNA antibodies, but no binding could be observed in the DNA from the nucleus region. Digestion of lens DNA with DNase 1 dramatically decreased Z-DNA antibody binding, while RNase A and T1 treatment had no effect on Z-DNA immunoreactivity. This study has demonstrated that: (a) Z-DNA antibodies developed for our study can bind in high salt solutions (4M NaCl) to purified lens DNA sequences isolated from a variety of different calf lens cell types.
