Differential changes in selected genes related to cell-cell junction, cell-to-cell and cell-to-extracellular matrix (ECM) adhesion. Collection of significantly different expressions of transcription factors, kinases and transmembrane receptors related to cell-cell connection and adhesion (A). CAMs, integrins and ECM receptors determine the tissue origin of LESCs (C and D). Molecule types of the selected 54 upstream regulator in the two groups of cells (E). TEM pictures about LESCs on lens capsule shows the cell-cell junctions between the cells (B) (LC = Lens capsule, A = Attachment between LC and cells; C1, ,, C2 and C3 - three cell-layer, L = translucent space, D = Desmosomes.
