    Cellular Activation - PMSF, protease inhibitor (ab141032)

    Analysis of protein expression level in the sclera. The scleral tissue was homogenized and solubilized in ice-cold PBS containing PMSF protease inhibitor. Lumican and collagen type I were both overexpressed at the protein level in the transgenic sclera. GAPDH was used as a control. Lane 1 to lane 5, transgenic mice. Lane 6 to lane 9, wild-type mice.
