Abstract excerpt
Recapitulation of human corneal stromal tissue is believed to be among the most challenging steps in engineering human corneal tissue because of the difficulty in reproducing its highly-ordered hierarchical ultrastructure, which imparts its robust biomechanical properties and optical transparency. In this study, we compared the feasibility of utilizing human corneal stromal stem cells (hCSSCs) and human corneal...
