| Abstract: | Epithelial cells on cultured lenses have been observed in the living state, for the first time, by both phase contrast and interference-contrast microscopy. Our observations show that within 48 h after explantation the cells undergo a transformation in shape from polygons to spindles. By 72–87 h post-isolation the spindle shaped cells round up to varying degrees and many of them undergo mitosis. |
