doi: 10.1038/s41598-025-13656-2
Figure Lengend Snippet: Effect of AMF30a on cell adhesion of corneal endothelial cells. ( A - C ) Cell adhesion assay was performed using crystal violet assay. Scale bar = 500 μm. ( D ) immunofluorescence staining of E-cadherin are shown. Scale bar = 100 μm. ( E and F ) F-actin was visualized using phalloidin staining. Scale bar = 100 μm. ( G and H ) pERK1/2 levels were evaluated using Western blot. ( I and J ) pYAP levels were evaluated using western blot. ( K and L ) Nuclear translocation of YAP was evaluated using immunofluorescence staining. Scale bar = 50 μm. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01 and **** p < 0.0001.
