摘要:
The present invention provides a technique for treating the cornea. More specifically, the present invention is an agent for the treatment or prevention of a state of corneal endothelial disease, the agent including at least one factor selected from the group consisting of laminin and fragments thereof, wherein the problem is solved by also providing a technique characterized in that this agent is administered together with corneal endothelial cells. Specifically, the present invention can include laminin 511 (α5β1γ1), laminin 521 (α5β2γ1), or a fragment of these.

The present invention provides a technique for treating retinal epithelium and/or nerves. More specifically, the present invention is an agent for the treatment or prevention of retinal disease or the like and/or a disease, disorder, or ophthalmological state of the nerves, the agent including at least one factor selected from the group consisting of laminin and fragments thereof, wherein the problem is solved by also providing a technique characterized in that this agent is administered together with retinal pigment epithelial cells and/or nerve cells. Specifically, the present invention can include laminin 411 (α4β1γ1), laminin 511 (α5β1γ1), laminin 521 (α5β2γ1), or fragments of these.
摘要:
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method of purification and preparation of cultured corneal endothelial cells, and in particular, to provide cell surface markers for use in corneal endothelial cells not including transformed cells. Provided are cell markers for distinguishing normal cells and transformed cells, in particular normal and transformed corneal endothelium cells. These cell markers relate to specific cell surface markers, for example, to a normal corneal endothelial surface marker such as CD166, and a transformed cell surface marker such as CD73. By using the transformed cell surface marker such as CD73 to remove transformed cells by sorting, it becomes possible to improve purity of a normal cultured corneal endothelium. By using normal corneal endothelial surface marker such as CD166, or by combined use with the transformed cell surface marker, it becomes possible to provide a means for verifying the purity of a prepared corneal endothelium.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method for the normalized culturing ofcorneal endothelial cells. More specifically, the present invention provides a culture-normalizing-agent of a corneal endothelial cell, comprising a fibrosis inhibitor. In detail, the present invention provides a culture-normalizing agent comprising a transforming growth factor (TGF) β signal inhibitor. The present invention also provides a culture medium for culturing a corneal endothelial cell normally, which comprises the culture-normalizing agent according to the present invention and corneal endothelium culture components. The present invention also provides a method for culturing a corneal endothelial cell normally, comprising the step of culturing a corneal endothelial cell using the culture-normalizing agent according to the present invention or the culture medium according to the present invention.
