Fig. 6.
α-SMA+ Desmin+ myofibroblasts in a rabbit cornea at 1 month after −9D PRK. At this point after surgery, corneal myofibroblasts express vimentin (not shown), α-SMA (left panel, green), and desmin (center panel, red). In this double-stained section there is nearly 100% concurrence of α-SMA and desmin expression (right panel, overlay). Blue is DAPI staining of cell nuclei. 400X. After Chaurasia et al., 2009.
