Figure 6. — Modelling of the ageing of the human lens. (a) The model tracks the evolution of the human cell-density profile as measured in lenses of different ages. (b,c) The age-dependent decline in human lens epithelial cell proliferation. Representative images from flat-mounted human lens epithelia probed with the cell proliferation marker, Ki-67 (green channel) and DAPI (blue channel). Note that the 33-year-old lens (b) has more proliferating cells than the 88-year-old lens (c). In both cases, the GZ and MR are located on the right of the image. Scale bars, 10 μm.
