Abstract

The corneal tissue consists of three layers : epithelium, stroma, and endothelium. Central cornea is a highly differentiated tissue whereas the limbus contains the epithelial stem cell. In the present study. we report the engineering of the three-dimensional reconstructed cornea derived from rabbit limbal epithelial and stromal cells. The differentiation degree of corneal stem cells were assessed in serum concentration and inoculation density of stromal cells. Optimal condition differentiation of corneal stem cells is achieved when 5% FBS was supplemented to culture medium and $1-2{\times}10^5$ cells/ml inoculation density of stromal cells.
