Human Lacrimal Gland Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells – Isolation, Propagation, and Characterization
13 Jul 2023
Abstract excerpt
Purpose: The existing treatment options for dry eye disease (DED) due to lacrimal gland (LG) dysfunction are mainly palliative. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) based therapies and 3D-LG organoids have been explored as a curative option for LG regeneration in animal models. Human LG epithelial cultures are previously established and, here, we aim to isolate and characterize the spindle-shaped cells obtained from...
