Patterned expression of neurotrophic factors and receptors in human limbal and corneal regions-0
1 Jan 2011
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To evaluate the expression patterns of neurotrophic factors (NTFs) and their receptors in the human cornea with the intention of exploring the role of NTFs in maintaining corneal epithelial stem cells in the limbus. METHODS: Fresh human corneoscleral tissues were prepared for frozen sections. Immunofluorescent staining was performed with primary antibodies against six members of three NTF families and...
