Aim/Purpose of the Study: To develop a one-week storage method, without serum and xenobiotics, that would maintain cell viability, morphology, and phenotype of cultured human limbal epithelial sheets
Compared to stem cells in other tissues, relatively little is known about the limbal niche, which is believed to play a pivotal role in regulating self-renewal and fate decision of limbal epithelial s
The rapid and effective regeneration of corneal epithelial cells depends on limbal stem cells (LSCs). The LSCs of mouse can be subdivided into quiescent LSCs (located on the outer limbus, qLSCs) and a
The most efficient method to expand limbal stem cells (LSCs) in vitro for clinical transplantation is to culture single LSCs directly on growth-arrested mouse fibroblast 3T3 cells. To reduce possible
