Establishment of appropriate glaucoma models using dexamethasone or TGFβ2 treated three-dimension (3D) cultured human trabecular meshwork (HTM) cells

Abstract To establish appropriate ex vivo models for a glaucomatous trabecular meshwork (TM), two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) cultures of human trabecular meshwork cells (HTM) were prepared in the presence of 250 nM dexamethasone (DEX) or 5 ng/mL TGFβ2, and characterized by the follo...
