The introduction of tissue engineering has allowed scientists to push the boundaries and treat seriously damaged ocular surface epithelia. They have managed to do this through the development of biological substitutes that restore, maintain or improve tissue function. To ensure the generation of a therapeutically safe and effective graft, knowledge on the transcriptional profile of native and cultured ocular surface epithelia is of undeniable value. Gene expression studies are, however, only as ...[more]
