Regeneration of the Corneal Endothelium.

abstract：PURPOSE:To generate toxicology profiles of individual drugs on human corneal epithelial cells (HCEC) and compare their in vitro cytotoxicity. METHODS:Monolayer cultures of HCEC were harvested from two human donor eyes. Sunitinib (0.3-10 µg/mL) and Sorafenib (0.3-100 µg/mL), diluted in culture medium (CnT-BM.1, CELLnTE...
