... of P1 lenses (compare Fig. 2 M,N) raised a major question regarding the status of lens epithelium in Snf2h cKO lenses. Lens epithelium is marked by expression of FoxE3 and E-cadherin, and higher levels of Pax6 expression are found in lens epithelium than in lens fibers. In E12.5-E14.5 lens, expression...
