Table 4. The distribution of crystallins in a soluble protein fraction

Emblica (Group IV) and tannoids (Group III) treatment normalized the altered crystallin distribution in untreated diabetic (Group II). Group I: Control rats. Data are the average of three HPLC runs for the area under the curve. The relative percentage of peaks on the SEC column in untreated and treated diabetic groups was calculated by considering the area under the curve for the respective peak in Group I as 100%.

        Peak            Group I   Group II   Group III   Group IV
---------------------   -------   --------   ---------   --------
α-Crystallin+HMW Peak     100       211         111        102
β-Crystallin              100        55          85         93
γ-Crystallin              100        74         112        110
