The study was undertaken to determine the copper content in different human cataractous lenses. The level of copper increased with increasing age in nuclear brunescence and mixed cataractous lens and a low amount of copper was observed in the posterior subcapsular cataractous lens with increasing age. Cataractous lenses of females have greater amounts of copper compared with males.
本研究旨在测定不同人类白内障晶状体中的铜含量。在核性棕色白内障和混合性白内障晶状体中,铜含量随年龄增长而增加,而在后囊下白内障晶状体中,随着年龄增长观察到铜含量较低。与男性相比,女性白内障晶状体中的铜含量更高。
