Fig. 3. (A) Representative histological sections from the bow region of wild-type (+/+) and
8 homozygous knockout (/) lenses. The arrows indicate the lens bow region where epithelial cells differentiate to become fiber cells. Scale bar, 50 µm. (B) Double immunolabeling of
8 (red) and
3 (green) connexins in the cortical fibers of the frozen sections from wild-type (+/+) and
8 homozygous knockout (/) lenses. Scale bar, 5 µm.
