Effect of Nifedipine on Severe Experimental Cataract in Diabetic Rats
We examined the effects of Ca2+-channel blockers on sugar cataract formation in streptozotocin (65 mg/kg, i.v.)-induced diabetic rats that were given 5% D-glucose as drinking water. The diabetic rats were treated with an L-type Ca2+-channel blocker, nifedipine or verapamil, for 9 weeks from the 3rd...
