Abstract

To analyze the possibility of culturing limbal epithelial stem cells, an experiment was performed on rabbits of the Chinchilla breed. Cultivation of cells obtained from fragments of limb tissue was performed on aMEM nutrient environment. On the 8th day, the growth of colonies of epithelial-like and fibroblastlike cells was noted. After treatment with antibodies against cy-tokeratin 19, the presence of limbal epithelial stem cells in the grown population was confirmed.
