Table 1. Comparative determination of bovine lens epithelial cell polyol content in galactose-maintained and galactose-free cultures
Confluent monolayers of BLECs were maintained in MEM or galactose (Gal) with or without Sorbinil, 17α-estradiol, or 17β-estradiol for 3 days. The data are expressed as nmol polyol/mg protein and represents single determinations from two individual flasks of cells±SD. The asterisk indicates a significant increase in polyol content relative to control cells.
Concentration of polyol Culture (nmol/mg conditions protein) ---------- --------------- Control 36.3 ± 4.1 Gal 282 ± 114.9* Gal+ARI 10.1 ± 3.2 Gal+17a-E2 216.4 ± 34.5 Gal+17b-E2 213.9 ± 36.3 |
