Improvement of an Effective Protocol for Directed Differentiation of Human Adipose Tissue-Derived Adult Mesenchymal Stem Cells to Corneal Endothelial Cells
Corneal disease affects 12.5 million individuals worldwide, with 2 million new cases each year. The standard treatment consists of a corneal transplantation from a human donor; however, the worldwide demand significantly exceeds the available supply. Lamellar endothelial keratoplasty, the replacemen...

Corneal disease affects 12.5 million individuals worldwide, with 2 million new cases each year. The standard treatment consists of a corneal transplantation from a human donor; however, the worldwide demand significantly exceeds the available supply.

Progressive efforts have succeeded in expanding hCECs; however, the ability to expand hCECs is still limited, and new sources of CECs are being sought. Crucial advances have been achieved by the directed differentiation of embryonic or induced pluripotent stem cells, but these cells have disadvantages, such as the use of oncogenes, and are still difficult to establish.
