Figure 4: Biomarkers for human corneal endothelial cells (CECs).

From: 3D map of the human corneal endothelial cell

Figure 4

Nine structural or functional proteins were selected because of their specific staining pattern and subcellular location in CECs compared to corneal epithelial, stromal and trabecular meshwork (TM) cells. Except for N-cadherin, none of them was expressed only in CECs, but they all had a distinct pattern specific for CECs. Nuclei were counterstained by Hoechst 33342 (in blue). Scale bar 20 μm.
