A newly established cell line of rabbit lens epithelium. 1986

T Sasabe, and K Kishida, and A Kiritoshi, and A Uni, and R Manabe

Rabbit lens epithelial cells have been cultured continuously for more than 24 months (200 generations) in monolayers. Their morphology resembled cobblestones when confluent and was spindle-shaped during growth. The doubling time was 40 hours. The cells were capable of colony formation and their plating efficiency was about 6%. They had immunoreactivity to antiserum to the crystalline-rich supernatant of rabbit lens homogenate. Therefore, it was concluded that they were a permanent cell line and they were named TOTL-86 cells.

D007908 Lens, Crystalline A transparent, biconvex structure of the EYE, enclosed in a capsule and situated behind the IRIS and in front of the vitreous humor (VITREOUS BODY). It is slightly overlapped at its margin by the ciliary processes. Adaptation by the CILIARY BODY is crucial for OCULAR ACCOMMODATION. Eye Lens,Lens, Eye,Crystalline Lens

D004847 Epithelial Cells Cells that line the inner and outer surfaces of the body by forming cellular layers (EPITHELIUM) or masses. Epithelial cells lining the SKIN; the MOUTH; the NOSE; and the ANAL CANAL derive from ectoderm; those lining the RESPIRATORY SYSTEM and the DIGESTIVE SYSTEM derive from endoderm; others (CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM and LYMPHATIC SYSTEM) derive from mesoderm. Epithelial cells can be classified mainly by cell shape and function into squamous, glandular and transitional epithelial cells.
