ABCB5-positive stem cells for LSCD therapy
This is a minority supplement to the project “ABCB5-positive stem cells for LSCD therapy”. The goal of this project is to examine the capacity of ABCB5-positive corneal epithelial stem cells to repair the cornea in xenotransplantation models of limbal stem cell deficiency.
