Design of functional decellularized matrix for conjunctival epithelial stem cell maintenance and ocular surface reconstruction

Conjunctival defects severely impair ocular surface homeostasis and vision. However, the existing conjunctival reconstruction methods are still unable to achieve satisfactory functional replacement of conjunctiva. Scaffold materials that provide a more stem-cell-friendly microenvironment are in urge...
