Effect of TGFBIp on limbal epithelial cell (LEC) proliferation. LECs were incubated with TGFBIp (0–10 μg/mL) for 72 h (a). LECs were preincubated with or without the FAK inhibitor CAS 4506-66-5 (1 μM) and then stimulated with TGFBIp (10 μg/mL) for 72 h (b). Cell proliferation was assessed by the MTT assay. Error bars represent the standard deviation of the mean. , compared with the control medium, TGFBIp 0 μg/mL (Student’s t-test). TGFBIp: transforming growth factor-β-induced protein.
