Induction of cataracts in experimental animals is a common toxic feature of oxidosqualene cyclase (OSC) inhibitors. U18666A has been shown to produce irreversible lens damage within a few weeks of treatment. Drug actions, besides reducing the availab

Simvastatin rapidly induced cataracts in young Chbb:Thom (27) but not Sprague Dawley (SD) or Hilltop Wistar (HW) rats. Oral treatment for 14 but not 7 days committed CT rat lenses to cataract formation. The cholesterol to phospholipid molar ratio in

Recent studies of the distribution and relative concentration of caveolin-1 in fractions of bovine lens epithelial and fiber cells have led to the novel concept that caveolin-1 may largely exist as a peripheral membrane protein in some cells. Caveoli

Treatment of animals or cells with the amphipathic tertiary amine U18666A {3beta-[2-(diethylamino) ethoxy]androst-5-en-17-one} provides models for several human diseases (e.g., cataracts, Niemann-Pick disease, and epilepsy). Although U18666A can inhi

We investigated the possibility that sterols could covalently modify ocular lens cell proteins. Incubation of cultured bovine lens epithelial cells (BLEC) with 3H-cholesterol led to the labeling of a cytosolic protein of about 52 kD. Two-dimensional

Desmosterolosis is a rare, autosomal recessive, human disease characterized by multiple congenital anomalies in conjunction with grossly elevated levels of desmosterol and markedly reduced levels of cholesterol in all bodily tissues. Herein, we evalu

The molecular structure of human ocular lens fiber cell plasma membranes was examined directly using small angle x-ray diffraction approaches. A distinct biochemical feature of these membranes is their high relative levels of free cholesterol; the mo

The influence of cholesterol on the binding of alpha-crystallin to pure phospholipid membranes was studied. The rationale of this investigation stems from two unique aspects of human lens cells: an unusually high level of cholesterol in the membranes

The ocular lens must continuously synthesize the cholesterol required to support membrane formation for its life-long growth. The roles of transcriptional and posttranscriptional mechanisms in controlling 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reducta
