The mucinous layer of corneal endothelial cells
The goal of this study was to characterize the morphology of the mucinous layer on rabbit, bovine, owl, and human corneal endothelial cells.Corneoscleral buttons were fixed using cetylpyridinium chloride to stabilize "mucus" and the tissue was prepared for transmission electron microscopy.

Extracellular Vesicles Derived From Human Corneal Endothelial Cells Inhibit Proliferation of Human Corneal Endothelial Cells [PDF]
Corneal endothelial cells (CEnCs) are a monolayer of hexagonal cells that are responsible for maintaining the function and transparency of the cornea. Damage or dysfunction of CEnCs could lead to blindness. Human CEnCs (HCEnCs) have shown limited proliferative capacity in vivo hence, their ...

Arginine depletion as a mechanism for the immune privilege of corneal allografts. [PDF]
The cornea is an immune privileged tissue. Since arginase has been found to modulate T-cell function by depleting arginine, we investigated the expression of arginase in the cornea and its possible role in immune privilege using a murine transplant model.

Corneal Endothelial Cell Loss in Glaucoma Treatment Procedures: A Brief Review [PDF]
Glaucoma surgeons should be careful about damage to the corneal endothelial cells during glaucoma surgeries particularly during glaucoma drainage device implantation. The patients should be monitored for possible corneal decompensation.

ROCK inhibitor enhances adhesion and wound healing of human corneal endothelial cells. [PDF]
Maintenance of corneal transparency is crucial for vision and depends mainly on the endothelium, a non-proliferative monolayer of cells covering the inner part of the cornea. When endothelial cell density falls below a critical threshold, the barrier and

Specular microscopy of the corneal endothelial cells of bovines: An ex vivo study
Background: The endothelium is the most posterior layer of the cornea and essential for maintaining corneal transparency. Due to variations in corneal endothelial parameters among different species, knowledge of the normal parameters for each species is
