Whole-mount staining of ZO-1 and α-SMA on a CEC scraping cornea. ZO-1 expression decreased in the forefront of the migrating cells, while α-SMA was expressed in the migrating CECs on day 7. At day 14, ZO-1 was re-expressed on the cell border, although it was not as organized as that in the normal endothelium, while α-SMA became negative in all the endothelial cells. Bars represent 20 μm.
