Abstract excerpt
Orbital fibroblasts in culture display phenotypic attributes that distinguish them from fibroblasts derived from other anatomical regions. The current studies were conducted to define potential cellular heterogeneity among orbital fibroblasts with regard to 1) differential expression of Thy-1, a...
