Increased Expression of CCN2 in the Red Flashing Light-Induced Myopia in Guinea Pigs

Figure 4

The expression of CCN2 and downstream pathway genes in posterior sclera tissues after light exposure was evaluated by RT-PCR. (a) The relative CCN2 and TGF-β mRNA level were analyzed in posterior sclera tissues. (b) The relative p38 MAPK and PI3K mRNA level were also examined in posterior sclera tissues. ^∗𝑃<0.05 indicates significant differences from control; ^#𝑃<0.01 indicates significant difference from control; ^⋆𝑃<0.05 indicates significant differences from control.
