© 2019, The Author(s). Amniotic membrane (AM) is used to treat a range of ophthalmic indications but must be presented in a non-contaminated state. AM from elective caesarean sections contains natural microbial contamination, requiring removal during...

Anti-inflammatory potential of human corneal stroma-derived stem cells determined by a novel in vitro corneal epithelial injury model (2019)
Journal Article
Morales, M. L. O., Marsit, N. M., McIntosh, O. D., Hopkinson, A., & Sidney, L. E. (2019). Anti-inflammatory potential of human corneal stroma-derived stem cells determined by a novel in vitro corneal epithelial injury model.

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...

A thermoresponsive three-dimensional fibrous cell culture platform for enzyme-free expansion of mammalian cells (2019)
Journal Article
Aladdad, A. M., Amer, M. H., Sidney, L., Hopkinson, A., White, L. J., Alexander, C., & Rose, F. R. (2019). A thermoresponsive three-dimensional fibrous cell culture platform for enzyme-free expansion of mammalian cells. Acta Biomaterialia, 95, 427-438. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.actbio.2019.01.037

A three-dimensional thermoresponsive fibrous scaffold system for the subsequent extended culture and enzyme-free passaging of a range of mammalian cell types is presented. Poly(PEGMA188) was incorporated with poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) via bl...
