Effect of intraocular irrigating solutions on the viability of cultured retinal vascular endothelial cells.

abstract：:The corneal endothelium is known to contain gap junctions on its lateral borders. Here we show that the endothelial cells of the rabbit cornea are highly dye coupled. Lucifer Yellow CH introduced into a single cell through either an intracellular glass microelectrode or a patch electrode rapidly spreads into its neigh...
