RNA Interference Targeting Snail Inhibits the Transforming Growth Factor β2-Induced Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition in Human Lens Epithelial Cells

Figure 5

siRNA inhibition of Snail protein expression. Serum starved HLEB3 cells were transfected with human Snail siRNA (P2) and negative control (P5) before being stimulated with TGFβ2 for 8 hours. Cells were stained with anti-Snail antibody (red) and counterstained with Hoechst (blue). Images were taken by fluorescence microscope (400x).
