Western blots. A: Western blot using retinal pigment epithelium (RPE)- and choroid lysate. RPE-65 and collagen type 1 show a immunoreactive band. Beside background staining, there is no reactivity in any of the patients. B: Western blot using protein extract of an RPE cell line. RPE-65 showed immunoreactive staining. There is no staining in patients that developed an inflammatory reaction after RPE-choroid transplantation (Disease), and nonspecific weak staining in patients that underwent uncomplicated RPE-choroid transplantation (Control group I), patients that underwent full macular translocation (Control group II), age-related macular degeneration patients treated with anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (Control group III), and healthy controls (Control group IV)
