Transcriptome Analysis of Cultured Limbal Epithelial Cells on an Intact Amniotic Membrane following Hypothermic Storage in Optisol-GS
The aim of the present study was to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying activation of cell death pathways using genome-wide transcriptional analysis in human limbal epithelial cell (HLEC) cultures following conventional hypothermic storage in Optisol-GS. Three-week HLEC cultures were stored in Optisol-GS for 2, 4, and 7 days at 4 °C. Partek Genomics Suite software v.6.15.0422, (Part...
متن کاملPutative stem cell markers in limbal epithelial cells cultured on intact & denuded human amniotic membrane.
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES The ocular surface is an ideal region to study the epithelial stem cell (SC) biology because of the unique spatial arrangement of stem cells and transient amplifying cells. A major challenge in corneal SC biology is the ability to identify SC in vitro and in situ, and one of the major controversies in the field relates to reliable SC markers. This study was carried out t...
متن کاملThe fate of limbal epithelial progenitor cells during explant culture on intact amniotic membrane.
PURPOSE The clinical success of treating corneas with total limbal stem cell deficiency using limbal biopsy explants cultured on intact amniotic membrane (iAM) relies on ex vivo expansion of limbal epithelial progenitor cells. However, the ultimate fate of limbal epithelial progenitor cells in the explant remains unclear. METHODS Human limbal explants were cultured on iAM for 2 weeks and then...
متن کاملcorneal differentiation following hsc70 and hsp72 expression in air-exposed limbal stem cells cultured on denuded amniotic membrane
background: the aim of this study is to create an ex vivo model to examine the expression of two heat shock protein 70 (hsp70) family members, heat shock protein 72 (hsp72) and heat shock constitute protein 70 (hsc70), at the mrna and protein levels in differentiating corneal cells from air exposed limbal stem cells. materials and methods: limbal biopsies were cultured as explants on a cellular...
متن کاملRole of matrix metalloproteinase-9 in ex vivo expansion of human limbal epithelial cells cultured on human amniotic membrane.
PURPOSE To investigate the expression and pivotal role of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 in the ex vivo expansion of human limbal explants with or without amniotic membrane (AM). METHODS Corneoscleral buttons were cultured on intact, denuded AM or plastic dishes for 3 weeks. To determine the role of MMP-9 in cell migration, either the MMP inhibitor GM6001 or an MMP-9 antibody was used. Expr...
