Generation of Human Lens Epithelial‐Like Cells From Patient‐Specific Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
19 Mar 2016
Abstract excerpt
Cataractogenesis begins from the dynamic lens epithelial cells (LECs) and adjacent fiber cells. LECs derived from cell lines cannot maintain the crystalline expression as the primary LECs. The current study aimed to efficiently generate large numbers of human LECs from patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). Anterior lens capsules were collected from cataract surgery and were used to culture...
