| Research Abstract |
We demonstrated that the rapidly and high production of nitric oxide (NO) caused to the mitochondrial damage in the human lens epithelial cells, and the balance in sensitivity of mitochondria and cell membrane to NO were related the mitochondrial dysfunction. In addition, the recovery time for mitochondrial function is related to exposure time to NO in human lens epithelial cells. The repetition in temporary mitochondrial dysfunction may be caused the lens opacification.
