Renewing the DF-LNCs in the Transwell system and comparison with 3T3 cells. a Morphologic characterization of OMECs supported by 3T3 cells (3T3), DF-LNC (DF), and renewed DF-LNC (DF+) in Transwell. Scale bar = 100 μm. b The relative mRNA expression of CK12, Pax6, Ki67, and ΔNp63α expressed by OMECs supported by 3T3 cells, DF-LNC, and renewed DF-LNC in Transwell. c The relative protein level of CK12, Pax6, Ki67, and ΔNp63α expressed by OMECs supported by 3T3 cells, DF-LNC, and renewed DF-LNC in Transwell. d Western blot analysis of CK12, Pax6, Ki67, and ΔNp63α; β-actin was used as an internal control. **p < 0.01, *p < 0.05
