The secretome of alginate-encapsulated limbal epithelial stem cells modulates corneal epithelial cell proliferation.

The secretome of alginate-encapsulated limbal epithelial stem cells modulates corneal epithelial cell proliferation.

Limbal epithelial stem cells may ameliorate limbal stem cell deficiency through secretion of therapeutic proteins, delivered to the cornea in a controlled manner using hydrogels. In the present study the secretome of alginate-encapsulated limbal epithelial stem cells is investigated. Conditioned med...
