چکیده انگلیسی
In this investigation healthy rabbit crystalline lenses were characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM). The lenses were cut in slices with thickness with 1 mm and thus, put after cortex distinct regions of nucleus and cortex for AFM examination. AFM analysis were carried out using a PicoSPM I operating in Mac Mode. We obtained topographic images of rabbit lenses and a quantitative analysis of the width and height of fibers for nucleus and cortex regions. The longitudinal section analysis of fibers in the nucleus region indicated structures with an average width of 200 nm and average height of 200 nm. The intershells distance was determined as 4 μm. Fiber cell cross-section dimensions, longitudinal and transverse widths, could be estimated in these regions from the AFM images. Structures with average widths as small as 1.0 μm are observed in the nucleus; the intershell distance is 4.0 μm. In cortical regions, hexagonal structures with average longitudinal and transverse widths of 5.0 μm and 3.0 μm, respectively, were identified. Three-dimensional images of tissue sections with resolution on a nanometer scale were obtained. The potential of AFM analysis for characterizing healthy and pathologic lens tissues is discussed.
