Figure 1. Real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis of LOXL1 mRNA expression in anterior lens capsules. Total RNA was extracted from the anterior lens capsule of XFG/senile cataracts. Real-time PCR analysis was performed with expression assay probes. The amount of relative expression was normalized to that of 18Sr RNA. (N.S.: Not statistically significant, p=0.529; Mann–Whitney’s U-test).
