  • Title: [Electronmicroscopic study on the vitreous membrane of the Stickler syndrome].
    Author: Miyashita K, Tokunaga M, Akiyama K, Tani M, Ando Y, Chin S, Matsuda H.
    Journal: Nippon Ganka Gakkai Zasshi; 1994 Jan; 98(1):86-91. PubMed ID: 8109451.
    Abstract:
    The vitreous membrane obtained from a patient with Stickler syndrome, an 8 year-old female, was investigated electronmicroscopically. The cells found in the membrane had cilia, microvilli and cytoplasmic filaments. Gap junctions and basement membrane-like structures were also found. Several of the cells had phagosomes containing crystalline materials. Thus, these cells seemed to be glial cells.
