人角膜内皮细胞的体外培养及其鉴定的研究进展

摘要

Corneal transparence and thickness mostly depend on corneal endothelial cells. The shortage of transplant -grade donor corneal tissues and limited in vitro expansion of human corneal endothelial cells prompted further impetus for the development of tissue-engineered human corneal endothelium reconstructed in vitro. The culture method of human corneal endothelial cell has been widely used. The standard used to evaluate and identify the human corneal endothelial cells cultivated in vitro has not been established. The objective of this article is to summarize the further study on identification and cultivation of human corneal endothelial cell in vitro.%角膜内皮细胞对维持角膜的透明性和厚度起着关键性的作用。人体内角膜内皮细胞有限的增殖能力及角膜供体的短缺，使组织工程人角膜内皮的体外重建受到了关注。目前，人角膜内皮细胞的培养方法已基本成熟。但是体外培养的人角膜内皮细胞的功能评价及鉴定标准却尚未建立。本文就人角膜内皮细胞的体外培养及其鉴定的研究进展进行综述。
