Problems solved by technology

The existing cell preservation solution has simple nutrients, no fixed ratio, and a single preservation method, which leads to low cell survival rate of stem cells, poor cell stability, and cannot maintain the activity of stem cells well
For corneal tissue that is not used for a short period of time, it is often stored in corneal preservation solution at 2-2°C for 2 weeks. When the storage time exceeds 2 weeks, the method used is the organ culture preservation method. and cryopreservation method, both methods require special preservation solution and preservation equipment, because with the increase of preservation time, the number of corneal apoptotic cells is increasing, and the structure is gradually disordered, so the cornea is seldom subjected to long-term preservation in practical applications. save
[0007] The above-mentioned cultivation, screening and preservation methods of limbal stem cells have a common feature in that the culture, screening and preservation of limbal stem cells must be performed after the cells are obtained from fresh corneal tissue. All steps may cause the loss of limbal stem cells, and it is difficult to successfully obtain a large number of highly active limbal stem cells

preparation example Construction

[0066] One embodiment of the present invention provides a method for preparing limbal stem cells, comprising the following steps:

[0067] Obtain corneal tissue and pretreat the corneal tissue to be used;

[0068] Adding a cell cryopreservation solution containing a cell inducer to the pretreated corneal tissue;

[0069] Freezing corneal tissue with cell freezing solution;

[0070] The cell-inducing agent is a reagent that can induce local inflammation or stress response of cells in the corneal tissue, but does not directly cause cell death.

[0071] In the above method, the cells are screened and preserved by adding a cryopreservation solution containing a cell-inducing agent to the corneal tissue, and the added cell-inducing agent can induce local inflammation or apoptosis of the cells in the corneal tissue, and the low-temperature Freezing conditions can induce apoptosis or necrosis of adult cells in corneal tissue, while maintaining and preserving the activity of limbal ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a highly active corneal limbal stem cell and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises the following steps: obtaining corneal tissue, pretreating the corneal tissue to be used; adding cell jelly containing a cell inducer to the pretreated corneal tissue storage solution; freezing the corneal tissue added with the cell freezing solution; the cell-inducing agent is a reagent that can induce local inflammation or stress response of cells in the corneal tissue, but does not directly cause cell death. This method can realize the screening of corneal limbal stem cells and mature and differentiated corneal cells in corneal tissue through simple low-temperature freezing operation before cell culture, and can realize long-term cryopreservation of highly active corneal limbal stem cells. Advanced equipment, easy operation, high screening efficiency, high purity of screened cells, can increase the proportion and activity of corneal limbal stem cells.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of tissue engineering, in particular to a method for preparing corneal limbal stem cells. Background technique [0002] The corneal limbus is the transition zone between the cornea and the sclera. Since the transparent cornea is embedded in the opaque sclera and gradually transitions to the sclera, there is no clear dividing line on the surface of the eyeball and histology. The corneal limbus is a natural storage location for adult stem cells responsible for corneal epithelial regeneration and repair. The corneal limbal stem cells are arranged in a palisade at the base of the epithelial layer in the corneal limbal tissue. Cell source, limbal stem cell transplantation is considered to be one of the most promising treatments for ocular surface diseases. [0003] Limbal stem cells play an important role in the reconstruction of the corneal ocular surface. However, because limbal stem cells are easy to differentiate in v...
