Keratocyte apoptosis after corneal surgery.
PURPOSE Programmed cell death (apoptosis) is the controlled death of cells that occurs with minimal collateral damage to surrounding cells or tissue during development, homeostasis, and wound healing. The authors hypothesize the keratocyte apoptosis is an initiating factor in the wound-healing response after refractive surgical procedures. To evaluate the effects of different corneal manipulati...
متن کاملIsolation and distribution of rabbit keratocyte precursors
PURPOSE To isolate multipotent precursors from the rabbit corneal stroma and to compare the distribution and proliferative capacity of keratocyte precursors obtained from the central and peripheral regions of the corneal stroma. METHODS The rabbit corneal stroma was divided into a peripheral region (6.0-10.0 mm in diameter) and a central region (6.0 mm in diameter). A sphere-forming assay was...
متن کاملKeratocyte apoptosis and failure of corneal allografts.
BACKGROUND Murine models of high-risk and low-risk corneal transplantation were used to determine the role of keratocyte apoptosis in the failure of orthotopic allogeneic corneal transplants. MATERIALS AND METHODS Normal (low-risk, low-rejecting) and inflamed/vascularized (high-risk, high-rejecting) BALB/c recipient beds received fully mismatched C57BL/6 corneal allografts. Apoptosis was dete...
متن کاملContact dynamics during keratocyte motility
BACKGROUND Keratocytes are specialised, rapidly moving cells that generate substantial contractile force perpendicular to their direction of locomotion. Potential roles for contractile force in cell motility include cell-body transport, regulation of adhesion, and retraction of the cell's trailing edge. RESULTS To investigate contact dynamics, we used simultaneous confocal fluorescence and in...
متن کاملEffects of gamma-interferon on keratocyte-induced collagen gel contraction and keratocyte proliferation.
PURPOSE Gamma-interferon has been shown to be an effective immunoregulatory polypeptide that can modulate fibroblastic response. We investigated the effects of gamma-interferon on keratocyte proliferation and keratocyte-induced collagen gel contraction. METHODS Gamma-interferon in concentrations of 0.01, 1, 100, and 1000 U/ml of media was added to keratocytes embedded in polymerized type I co...
