Ex Vivo Expansion of Limbal Epithelial Stem Cells: Amniotic Membrane Serving as a Stem Cell Niche

Dina Mohammed Tawfik Koptan;

Abstract


The corneal epithelium relies on a population of LSCs to replenish the
epithelial sheet. LSCD results in invasion of the cornea by the conjunctival
epithelium. It is manifested clinically by a vascularised corneal surface with
persistent epithelial def
