Purpose: Human limbal epithelial cells cultured on human amniotic membrane have been used for transplantation to treat corneal surface injuries. We determined whether the amniotic basement membrane affects the growth of human limbal epithelial cells through the production of growth factors.
Methods: The epithelial cells grown out from limbal basal epithelium were placed on conventional culture plastic or on the epithelial side of denuded amniotic membrane under serum-free conditions.
