Immunohistochemistry of meibomian glands: (a) Expression of cytokeratin 14 (epithelial meibocyte marker) shows reduced expression in both CC and EC group at D30 and D90 post-op. (Magnification; left to right 5x, 20x and 40x) (b) Gene expression analysis of the technical triplicate sample represents increased expression of inflammatory marker (CD4 &CD8) at D7, proliferative marker (Ki67) and lipogenic markers (ELOVL4, FATP4 and PPARG) showing decrease expression at D7 however an increase in expression at D30 is observed.
