Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol
. 1996 Aug;
234 Suppl 1:S232-8.
PMID: 8871180
Background: This study was designed to establish whether increased glycation of human crystallins could be related to an increased susceptibility to aggregation and insolubilization. The study was focused particularly on...
