α-SMA expression increases in culture. Western blot of bovine and mouse lens explants isolated immediately postmortem (To) or cultured for four days (D4) in basal media (0.1% BSA in DMEM). There is an increase in α-SMA expression after four days in culture. As in Fig. 1, there is more α-SMA expression in the mouse lens explants. Equal number of cells, determined by DNA content, were used for the To and D4 samples. 0.6 pg of DNA was loaded for the mouse samples and 1.8 pg of DNA for the bovine samples.
