Ex Vivo Propagation of Human Corneal Stromal “Activated Keratocytes” for Tissue Engineering
Keratoconus is a corneal disorder characterized by a thinning of stromal tissue, and the affected patients have induced astigmatism and visual impairment. It is associated with a loss of corneal stromal keratocytes (CSKs). Hence, reconstructing stromal tissue with autologous CSK replacement can be a...
