| Research Abstract |
induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells) were cultured with some medium, sorted and analyzed. These cultured cells differentiated to neural crest cells. These neural crest cells were sphere-cultured. There had been cells expressing corneal endothelial marker in these sphere-cultured cells.
On the other hand, iPS cells were cultured with the other medium, sorted and analyzed. These cultured cells differentiated to corneal epithelial progenitor cells and had potency of wound healing
