  1. 1. Corneal cellular proliferation and wound healing

    Author : Lisha Gan; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : cornea; cell proliferation; wound healing; stem-cells; leukocytes; PCNA; hyaluronan; alkali injury; photorefractive keratectomy;

    Abstract : Background: Cellular proliferation plays an important role in both physiological and pathological processes. Epithelial hyperplasia in the epithelium, excessive scar formation in retrocorneal membrane formation and neovascularization are examples of excessive proliferation of cornea cells. Lack of proliferative ability causes corneal degeneration. READ MORE

  2. 2. The role of Six1 in muscle progenitor cells and the establishment of fast-twitch muscle fibres
