Modeling Keratoconus Using Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
12 Jul 2016
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To model keratoconus (KC) using induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) generated from fibroblasts of both KC and normal human corneal stroma by a viral method. METHODS: Both normal and KC corneal fibroblasts from four human donors were reprogramed directly by delivering reprogramming factors in a single virus using 2A "self-cleaving" peptides, using a single polycistronic lentiviral vector coexpressing...
