Figure Legend:
Corneal expression of Slurp1. (A) qPCR demonstrating post-eyelid opening increase in Slurp1 expression. Slurp1 expression increases more than 15-fold between PN11 and PN21. (B) Immunofluorescent staining of PN11, PN21, and PN56 mouse corneas showing elevated expression of Slurp1 (red) in corneal epithelium in post-eyelid opening stages. (C) Immunofluorescent staining demonstrating expression of SLURP1 (green) in human corneas. Postmortem corneal sections from a healthy 52-year-old male organ donor were used. Nuclei are stained with DAPI (blue), and corresponding no-antibody controls are shown in (B, C). Signals emanating from the Descemet's membrane ([C], iv) appear to be due to autofluorescence, as they were detected in controls with no primary antibody ([C], iii) as well. Scale bars: 25 μm in (B) and 50 μm in (C).
