Effects of diabetic keratopathy on corneal optical density, central corneal thickness, and corneal endothelial cell counts
Diabetic keratopathy is an ocular complication that occurs with diabetes. In the present study, the effect of diabetic keratopathy on corneal optical density, central corneal thickness, and corneal endothelial cell count was investigated. One hundred and eighty diabetic patients (360 eyes) were enrolled in the study during the period from March, 2012 to March, 2013. The patients were divided in...
متن کاملOptimization of culture conditions for porcine corneal endothelial cells
PURPOSE To optimize the growth condition of porcine corneal endothelial cells (PCEC), we evaluated the effect of coculturing with a feeder layer (irradiated 3T3 fibroblasts) with the addition of various exogenous factors, such as epidermal growth factor (EGF), nerve growth factor (NGF), bovine pituitary extract (BPE), ascorbic acid, and chondroitin sulfate, on cell proliferation, size, and morp...
متن کاملHeterologous corneal endothelial cell transplantation--human corneal endothelial cell transplantation in Lewis rats.
A heterologous corneal endothelial transplantation was attempted using human endothelial cells and a Lewis rat penetrating keratoplasty model. Cultured human endothelial cells were seeded to a Lewis rat cornea, which was denuded of its endothelium. When grafted into the syngeneic Lewis rat, the graft remained clear for at least five days, and then became opaque and edematous because of immune r...
متن کاملeffect of amniotic fluid on the invitro culture of human corneal endothelial cells
purpose: to evaluate the effect of human amniotic fluid (haf) on the growth of human corneal endothelial cells (hcecs) and to establish an in vitro method for the expansion of hcecs. methods: hcecs were cultured in dmem-f12 supplemented with 20% fetal bovine serum (fbs). confluent monolayer cultures were trypsinized and passaged using 20% fbs- or 10%, 20%, or 30% haf-containing media. cell prol...
متن کاملOptimization of Human Corneal Endothelial Cells for Culture: The Removal of Corneal Stromal Fibroblast Contamination Using Magnetic Cell Separation
The culture of human corneal endothelial cells (CECs) is critical for the development of suitable graft alternative on biodegradable material, specifically for endothelial keratoplasty, which can potentially alleviate the global shortage of transplant-grade donor corneas available. However, the propagation of slow proliferative CECs in vitro can be hindered by rapid growing stromal corneal fibr...
