Figure 3. Two representative time lapse sequences of corneal GFP in GFP-Dstncorn1 mice. One representative time lapse is shown A and B and the other in C and D. Corneal GFP patterns were imaged with in vivo fluorescence microscopy at an interval of one to four weeks, and selected images are shown together with the age of the mouse. White areas represent GFP positive epithelial cells. Small central white circles are due to GFP in the lens that was visible through a pupil and masked corneal GFP. A: A time lapse sequence of central corneal images of a GFP-Dstncorn1 mouse from six weeks to 42 weeks of age is shown. B: The same eye is shown as in the previous panel (A), but a temporal side view from 42 weeks to 79 weeks is shown. C: A time lapse sequence of central corneal images of another GFP-Dstncorn1 mouse is shown. D: The same eye is shown at the same time points as in the latter panel (C) except that images were from a temporal side view. White curved lines are drawn to indicate a boundary between the cornea and the limbus in panels with an angled view. Bar: 1 mm.
