Corneal Stromal Regeneration: A Review of Human Clinical Studies in Keratoconus Treatment

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2021
The use of advanced therapies with stem cells to reconstruct the complex tissue of corneal stroma has gained interest in recent years. Besides, collagen-based scaffolds bioengineering has been offered as another alternative over the last decade.

Keratocyte loss in corneal infection through apoptosis: a histologic study of 59 cases

open access: yesBMC Ophthalmology, 2004
Background Keratocyte loss by apoptosis following epithelial debridement is a well-recognized entity. In a study of corneal buttons obtained from patients of corneal ulcer undergoing therapeutic keratoplasty, we observed loss of keratocytes in the normal

printing of corneal stroma tissue

open access: yes, 2021
Corneal stroma has a significant function in normal visual function. The corneal stroma is vulnerable because of being the thickest part of the cornea, as it can be affected easily by infections or injuries.

Corneal Regeneration After Photorefractive Keratectomy: A Review

open access: yesJournal of Optometry, 2015
Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) remodels corneal stroma to compensate refractive errors. The removal of epithelium and the ablation of stroma provoke the disruption of corneal nerves and a release of several peptides from tears, epithelium, stroma and ...

The potential therapeutic effect of stem cells loaded on two different vehicles (amniotic membrane and platelet rich plasma gel) in experimentally induced corneal alkali burns in rats [PDF]

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Histology, 2017
Background: Corneal alkali burns are common ophthalmic emergencies which may lead to permanent visual impairment. In spite of great advances made in the treatment of these cases, the structural and functional restoration of corneal alkali burns remains ...

Femtosecond Laser-Assisted Surgery for Implantation of Bioengineered Corneal Stroma to Promote Corneal Regeneration

open access: yes, 2020
The femtosecond laser has achieved widespread use in ophthalmology owing to its ability to deliver focused high energy that is rapidly dissipated and thereby does not damage surrounding tissue outside the precise focal region.

Effects of hypoxia in the diabetic corneal stroma microenvironment. [PDF]

open access: yesExp Eye Res
Corneal dysfunctions associated with Diabetes Mellitus (DM), termed diabetic keratopathy (DK), can cause impaired vision and/or blindness. Hypoxia affects both Type 1 (T1DM) and Type 2 (T2DM) surprisingly, the role of hypoxia in DK is unexplored. The aim of this study was to examine the impact of hypoxia in vitro on primary human corneal stromal cells ...
