- W2078153573 abstract "Purpose: To examine the effect of vitamins and trace elements on ocular tissue. Materials and Methods: Rats or mice were fed diets deficient in the trace elements Zn, Cu, Mn, Se, Mg, and Cr or in vitamins A, B12, C, and E. In some rats Al and vitamin A were injected in excessive amounts. We studied the conjunctiva, cornea, retina, and optic nerve with a light microscope, transmission and scanning electron microscopes, an energy dispersive X-ray analyzer, and an ion microscope. Histochemical, cytochemical, and immunohistochemical techniques were applied to the pathological specimens. Results: Deficiencies of Zn, Cu, Mn, and vitamins A, C and E caused a loss of goblet cells in the conjunctiva and a prominent decrease of microvilli and microplicae in the conjunctiva and cornea. The elements in the goblet cells were changed in these conditions. In addition, epithelial cells showed poor fibrous development and abnormal distribution of chromatin in the nucleus. Zn, Cu, Mn, and vitamins A and E deficiencies caused photoreceptor cells to degenerate and disappear. Se deficiency reduced the horizontal and amacrine cells. Vitamin B12 deficiency reduced nerve fibers in the nerve fiber layer of the retina. Mg deficiency induced multifocal necrosis in the retinal pigment epithelium and apoptotic nuclear changes in the photoreceptor cells. Cr deficiency showed abnormal phagocytosis of the photoreceptor outer segment discs in the retinal pigment epithelium. Vitamin B12 was found to be related to the circadian rhythm in the retina. Deficiencies of Zn, Cu, Mn, and vitamins A, B12, and E induced degeneration and disappearance of myelin lamellae in the myelinated optic nerve fibers. In hypervitaminosis A, lipid droplets appeared in the retinal pigment epithelium and alcohol dehydrogenase disappeared in the retinal pigment epithelium and photoreceptor outer segments. Excessive Al was toxic to the retina, which showed disappearance of photoreceptor cells. Al deposits were seen in dendrites and neurons in the outer plexiform layer. Zn seemed to be necessary for corneal epithelial cell wound healing. Discussion: Trace elements usually are contained in enzymes, which have many metabolic functions. They are related to synthesis and breakdown of many substances. Some trace elements such as Zn, Cu, Mn, and Se and vitamins including vitamins A, C, and E prevent peroxidation of lipids. Some vitamins have an affinity for specific tissues such as epithelial cells, nerve fibers, and neuronal cells and are needed for cell differentiation, development, and maintenance. Conclusion: Cu, Zn, Mn, Se, Mg, and Cr and vitamins A, B12, C, and E are necessary for maintenance of cellular structure and metabolism." @default.
