Conjunctival Reconstruction with Progenitor Cell-Derived Autologous Epidermal Sheets in Rhesus Monkey

Abstract: Severe ocular surface diseases are some of the most challenging problems that the clinician faces today. Conventional management is generally unsatisfactory, and the long-term ocular consequences of these conditions are devastating. It is significantly important to find a substitute for conjunctival epithelial cells. This study was to explore the possibility of progenitor cell-derived epidermal sheets on denuded amniotic membrane to reconstruct ocular surface of conjunctiva damaged monkeys. We isolated epiderm… Show more

“…The eyeball tissues were dissected to obtain 10 mm × 10 mm sections containing the transplants, which were frozen and sectioned via cryotomy (Leica). The cryosections and coverslips with retinal organoids were analyzed using immunofluorescence and hematoxylin and eosin staining as per the procedure described by Lu et al [17]. Antibodies against the following markers were used as primary antibodies for immunofluorescence microscopy at the dilutions indicated in parentheses: Ki67 (1 : 100, A11390, ABclonal, China), CHX10 (1 : 200, AB9016, Millipore, Germany), Brn3 (1 : 200, SC-6026X, Santa Cruz, USA), Islet1 (1 : 20, BM44446, Boster, China), HuD (1 : 100, SC-48421, Santa Cruz), RBPMS (1 : 100, ab152101, Abcam), β III-tubulin (1 : 200, ab7751, Abcam), neurofilament light polypeptide (NEFL; 1 : 100, A0257, ABclonal), microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2, 1 : 100, BM1243, Boster), vimentin (1 : 50, BM4029, Boster), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP; 1 : 500, 3670S, Cell Signaling Technology, USA), CD68 (1 : 200, ab201340, Abcam), Iba1 (1 : 200, ab5076, Abcam), and SC121 (1 : 500, Y40410, Takara Bio).…”

“…Subsequently, the tack was gently removed by forceps. Immunofluorescence and HE staining were performed as previously described [ 11 , 12 ]. Antibodies against the following proteins were used at the indicated dilutions: GFAP (mouse, 1 : 300, Cell Signaling Technology, 3670) and iba-1 (rabbit, 1 : 200, Abcam, Ab178680).…”
