Expression of corneal stromal ECM markers at the transcriptional level. Total mRNA extracted from A- and R-SLATEs (black and white bars, respectively) was analyzed by qPCR for expression of genes coding for corneal stroma-characteristic A) collagen, B) proteoglycan, C) enzyme, and D) fibrotic markers. Gene expression was normalized relative to that of control group. Data (average ± S.D.) were obtained from three independent experiments (n = 3).
