BACKGROUND An in vitro injury model mimicking a corneal surface injury was optimised using human corneal epithelial cells (hCEC). AIM To investigate whether corneal-stroma derived stem cells (CSSC) seeded on an amniotic membrane (AM) construct m...

Phenotypic change and induction of cytokeratin expression during in vitro culture of corneal stromal cells (2015)
Journal Article
Sidney, L. E., McIntosh, O. D., & Hopkinson, A. (2015). Phenotypic change and induction of cytokeratin expression during in vitro culture of corneal stromal cells. Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science, 56(12), https://doi.org/10.1167/iovs.15-17810

Purpose: Cells of the corneal epithelium and stroma can be distinguished in vivo by different intermediate filaments, cytokeratins for corneal epithelial cells (CEC) and vimentin for keratocytes. Isolated and cultured keratocytes change phenotype, lo... Read More about Phenotypic change and induction of cytokeratin expression during in vitro culture of corneal stromal cells.

Characterization of corneal stromal stem cells with the potential for epithelial transdifferentiation (2013)
Journal Article
Hashmani, K., Branch, M. J., Sidney, L. E., Dhillon, P. S., Verma, M., McIntosh, O. D., …Dua, H. S. (2013). Characterization of corneal stromal stem cells with the potential for epithelial transdifferentiation. Stem Cell Research and Therapy, 4(3), Article 75. https://doi.org/10.1186/scrt226

Introduction: The corneal stroma is being increasingly recognized as a repository for stem cells. Like the limbal and endothelial niches, stromal stem cells often reside in the peripheral cornea and limbus. These peripheral and limbal corneal stromal...
