متن کاملConjunctival epithelial cell differentiation on amniotic membrane.
PURPOSE Amniotic membrane (AM)-reconstructed conjunctival surfaces recover the normal epithelial phenotype with a significantly higher cell density than the control. The present study was undertaken to examine how AM modulates rabbit conjunctival epithelial cell differentiation. METHODS Rabbit conjunctival epithelial cells (RCEs) were cultured on the basement membrane side of dispase-pretreat...
