关于 LENEP

功能概要

晶状体是上皮起源的组织，没有血管和神经。晶状体上皮细胞通过有丝分裂、蛋白质合成以及离子和代谢物主动转运穿过晶状体囊，负责晶状体的生长和维持。晶状体上皮蛋白仅在晶状体上皮细胞中表达，并可能在细胞分化中发挥作用。[RefSeq 提供，2008 年 7 月]

The ocular lens is a tissue of epithelial origin and devoid of blood vessels and nerves. Cells of the lens epithelium are responsible for the growth and maintenance of the lens through Mitosis, protein synthesis, and active transport of ions and metabolites across the lens capsule. Lens epithelial protein is expressed exclusively in lens epithelial cells and may play a role in cell differentiation. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
