Effect of transplantation of cultured human neural stem and progenitor cells on regeneration of the cornea after chemical burn

Abstract: We studied the effect of cultured human fetal (8-12 weeks gestation) neural stem and progenitor cells on regeneration of rabbit cornea after alkaline burn. A single subconjunctival injection of cell culture suspension after burn injury significantly accelerated regeneration of the anterior and posterior epithelium in comparison with the control group.

“…Additionally, injuries were induced in the present study with corneal vacuum trephines rather than disks of filter paper as previously used by many researchers [3,4,15,17,21,22]. The reason for this was because the lesions inflicted with the trephines had clearer margins and precisely rounded areas than ones induced by the disks.…”
