Ultracryotomy and the corneal stroma [PDF]
Corneal stroma has two fundamentally interesting properties. Firstly, at physiological values of hydration, it is transparent to visible radiation. Secondly when bathed in aqueous solutions it will take up water and can achieve hydrations many times those of the physiological level with a consequent loss of transparency.

3D bioprinting of a corneal stroma equivalent [PDF]
© 2018 Elsevier Ltd Corneal transplantation constitutes one of the leading treatments for severe cases of loss of corneal function. Due to its limitations, a concerted effort has been made by tissue engineers to produce functional, synthetic corneal prostheses as an alternative recourse.

Effects of Aberrant Pax6 Gene Dosage on Mouse Corneal Pathophysiology and Corneal Epithelial Homeostasis [PDF]
Background: Altered dosage of the transcription factor PAX6 causes multiple human eye pathophysiologies. PAX6(+/-) heterozygotes suffer from aniridia and aniridia-related keratopathy (ARK), a corneal deterioration that probably involves a limbal ...

Keratin-Laden Bioink for Corneal Stroma Bioprinting. [PDF]
Corneal blindness remains a major clinical challenge, yet donor grafts are scarce. Bioprinting has emerged in recent decades to potentially overcome donor shortage. In bioprinting, collagen is a common biomaterial.

Corneal stroma microfibrils [PDF]
Elastic tissue was first described well over a hundred years ago and has since been identified in nearly every part of the body. In this review, we examine elastic tissue in the corneal stroma with some mention of other ocular structures which have been more thoroughly described in the past.

Corneal stromal mesenchymal stem cells: reconstructing a bioactive cornea and repairing the corneal limbus and stromal microenvironment [PDF]
Corneal stroma-derived mesenchymal stem cells (CS-MSCs) are mainly distributed in the anterior part of the corneal stroma near the corneal limbal stem cells (LSCs).
