Human Keratocytes Cultured on Amniotic Membrane Stroma Preserve Morphology and Express Keratocan
24 Nov 2003
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To develop a new method of expanding human corneal keratocytes in serum while maintaining their characteristic morphology and keratocan expression. METHODS: Human keratocytes were isolated from central corneal buttons by digestion in 1 mg/mL of collagenase A in DMEM and seeded on plastic or the stromal matrix of human amniotic membrane (AM) in DMEM with different concentrations of FBS. On confluence,...
