Problems solved by technology

[0005] The classic tissue engineering cornea is to inoculate the seed cells on the degradable material. Minami et al. cultivated the corneal cells on the collagen gel. Although the three-dimensional corneal analog was obtained, it could not be used for corneal transplantation due to its opacity and weak tensile strength.
Griffith et al. cultured transgenic endothelial and epithelial cells on a matrix based on collagen-chondroitin sulfate, and successfully cultivated functional human-like corneal tissue, but viruses and aldehyde cross-linking are toxic to normal cells, and the strength of the matrix In addition, because collagen is easily digested by collagenase, it is unstable, which in turn affects the optical properties of the cornea and the long-term survival of transplanted cells
Therefore, artificially synthesized corneal biomaterials are still far from ideal, and it is impossible to prepare a matrix structure with similar transparency, strength and biological characteristics as the human cornea.
[0006] Liu Xiaoxia et al. used the trypsin-freezing method to decellularize fresh rabbit corneas. The results showed that the full-thickness rabbit corneas and layered acellular matrix obtained by this method had no cellular components, but the light transmittance was lower than that of fresh corneas and decellularized. It takes a long time to last for 3 days
Xu Yonggen from the Third Affiliated Hospital of Peking University et al. used surfactants, DNase and RNase to decellularize the natural porcine cornea. After dehydration of 90% glycerol for 4 hours, its transparency was close to that of the natural cornea, but the natural corneal stroma was destroyed. Ultrastructure
Since most of the decellularization methods currently used such as mechanical force, ionic and deionized detergents, and enzymatic treatments can affect the transparency of the cornea and destroy the ultrastructure of the cornea

Abstract

The invention discloses acellular cornea or acellular corneal stroma, a preparation method and application thereof. The method comprises the following steps of: (1) obtaining fresh animal full-thickness cornea or corneal stroma; (2) removing corneal epithelium, corneal endothelium and stroma cells, namely 1, soaking the full-thickness cornea or the corneal stroma in pure water at room temperature; 2, placing the soaked full-thickness cornea or corneal stroma into enzyme solution, digesting with oscillating, and washing with balanced salt solution with oscillating; and 3, repeating freeze-thaw processes of the full-thickness cornea or the corneal stroma for 4 to 8 times and washing with balanced salt solution with oscillating to obtain the acellular cornea or the acellular corneal stroma; (3) dehydrating; and (4) sterilizing and storing. In the method, the decellularization processing time of the cornea is short; the influence on the structure and the physiological property of the cornea is small; and the processed cornea has very low immunogenicity which is similar to the property of natural cornea. The acellular cornea or the acellular corneal stroma can be applied to artificial cornea construction of tissue engineering and also can serve as a medical material applied to corneal transplantation and refraction surgery.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of medical materials, and in particular relates to an acellular cornea or an acellular corneal stroma, a preparation method and application thereof. Background technique [0002] Corneal disease is the second leading cause of blindness in the world, and the number of cases is increasing at a rate of 1.5 to 2 million per year. Corneal transplantation is currently the only effective way to treat corneal blindness, but the extreme scarcity of donor corneas restricts the development of corneal transplantation. Therefore, researching and developing human corneal substitutes is the key to solving this contradiction between supply and demand. [0003] At present, it has been decades since the construction of living tissue engineered corneas in vitro that are functionally equivalent to normal corneas. Due to the unique physiological and optical properties of the cornea, it is required that the constructed tissue engineered ...
