Article Synopsis
- The ocular surface can get damaged from various environmental factors, including UV-C radiation, which poses an occupational health risk.
- This study examines how UV-C exposure affects primary stem cells from the mouse ocular surface by measuring oxidative stress through the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS).
- The research employs DCFDA staining to quantify ROS levels and uses propidium iodide (PI) and Hoechst 33342 stains to differentiate between dead and live cells, providing a comprehensive analysis of cellular damage.
Angiogenesis, the process of new blood vessel formation from pre-existing vessels, is essential for growth and development. Development of drugs that can accelerate or decelerate angiogenesis in the context of various diseases requires appropriate preclinical screening. As angiogenesis involves complex cellular and molecular processes, in vivo studies are superior to in vitro investigations.
