[Mitotic effect of the pigment epithelium].

The authors suggest the production by the cultured RPE cell of one or more angiogenic substances. This activity is highly increased when RPE are cultured in poor conditions, either due to a poor medium or after having been challenged by a high number of rod outer segments. The mitotic factor appears heat-labile and trypsine sensitive, but not dialysable which suggest their biochemical nature to be a protein.

[Hereditary paracentric inversion of chromosome 3].

A complete uveal dysgenesis with absence of the anterior chamber and fixed mydriatic pupil was observed in the left eye of a boy. His younger sister and his father, and also the right eye of the patient showed similar but more discrete anterior uveal alterations. All three persons present some facial peculiarities. They are also heterozygous for a paracentric inversion of the short arm of chromosome 3. Four other cases with this chromosomal aberration were found in the literature, none with eye anomalies.
