Quality Control | 1. Western Blot was used to verify the HPV protein expression in the immortalized cell line. 2. Western blot and real-time RT-PCR was used to confirm the presence of in vivo RPE markers such as RPE65 and CRALBP. 3. Immunofluorescence staining was used to confirm expression of epithelial cell markers ZO1, cytokeratin 8 and cytokeratin 18. 4. Absence of neural cell marker, SV2, PKCα, rhodopsin |
