The keratocyte: corneal stromal cell with variable repair phenotypes.

The international journal of biochemistry & cell biology - 1 Jan 2006

West-Mays Judith A, Dwivedi Dhruva J

Abstract excerpt

Keratocytes, also known as fibroblasts, are mesencyhmal-derived cells of the corneal stroma. These cells are normally quiescent, but they can readily respond and transition into repair phenotypes following injury. Cytokines and other growth factors that provide autocrine signals for stimulating w...
