Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to characterize stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED) and to investigate the potential of SHED to differentiate toward corneal epithelium-like cells in vitro. METHODS: Mesenchymal and embryonic stem cell markers were analyzed by flow cytometry. The SHED was cocultured in either a transwell noncontact system or in a mixed culture system with immortalized human...
