| Research Abstract |
To establish method of differentiation into keratocyte from oral mucosal non-epithelial cells. Oral mucosal non-epithelial cells were isolated from oral mucosal tissues, cultured with methyl cellulose from single cell, and analyzed ability of multi-differentiation to mesenchymal cells, neural cells, or keratocytes. Oral mucosal non-epithelial cells were estimated the expression of mesenchymal stem cell markers. Oral mucosal non-epithelial cells selected neural crest marker, CD56 and PDGFRa, were differentiated into osteoblasts, adipocytes, chondrocytes, or neural cells. Keratocan, a marker of keratocytes, were detected in oral mucosal non-epithelial cells expressed mesenchymal stem cells markers. These data suggested that oral mucosal non-epithelial cells would be expected to a potential cell source for regeneration of corneal stroma.
