Engraftment and Proliferation of Thermoreversible-Gelation-Polymer-Encapsulated Human Corneal Limbal-Stem-Cells on Ocular Surface of a Cadaver Cornea.

TGP is found to be a multipurpose scaffold for (i) culture, (ii) encapsulation, and transplantation (iii), enabling engraftment of LSCs in this study, with potentials to extend its application in cell-based therapies in several regenerative medicine approaches.
