Corneal Stroma Regeneration with Acellular Corneal Stroma Sheets and Keratocytes in a Rabbit Model
Acellular corneal stroma matrix has been used for corneal stroma engineering. However, because of its compact tissue structure, regrowth of keratocytes into the scaffold is difficult. Previously, we developed a sandwich model for cartilage engineering using acellular cartilage sheets. In the present study, we tested this model for corneal stroma regeneration using acellular porcine corneal stro...
متن کاملCytoplasmic granules of the corneal stroma cell.
I n 1955, Jackson described the existence of circulating cytoplasmic granules of polysaccharide-protein composition in the fibrogenic cells of bone, tendon, and cornea of the fowl embryo which were growing in tissue culture. Long-lasting metachromasia developed in these granules when toluidine blue or thionine was added to the culture medium. It was not specifically stated in that paper that th...
متن کاملUneven swelling of the corneal stroma.
The surface V3 of the denuded corneal stroma was separated into the anterior and posterior segments; the swelling ratio of each was compared under zero pressure. In the rabbit, cat, and bovine corneas, the anterior segment was less hydrophilic than the posterior one, in both the central and peripheral regions. In the rabbit cornea, the swelling ratio of the posterior segment was significantly l...
متن کاملDecellularizing corneal stroma using N2 gas
PURPOSE To examine the efficacy of a novel method of decellularizing porcine corneal stroma using N(2) gas from liquid N(2) and the feasibility of using decellularized porcine corneal stroma in a corneal transplantation model in rabbits. METHODS Porcine corneas were placed in a tube, and N(2) gas from liquid N(2) was poured into the tube to freeze the corneas and make the inside of the tube h...
متن کاملA Native-Like Corneal Construct Using Donor Corneal Stroma for Tissue Engineering
Tissue engineering holds great promise for corneal transplantation to treat blinding diseases. This study was to explore the use of natural corneal stroma as an optimal substrate to construct a native like corneal equivalent. Human corneal epithelium was cultivated from donor limbal explants on corneal stromal discs prepared by FDA approved Horizon Epikeratome system. The morphology, phenotype,...
