Summary
This thesis outlines the rapid progression of the corneal regeneration field, including an in-depth analysis of wound healing pathways and biological modulators. In addition, in vitro studies were conducted to evaluate the migration capacity of corneal endothelium before and after lamellar endothelial keratoplasty.
These findings result in a better understanding of endothelial cell migration and provide further knowledge for the ongoing research on endothelial graft substitutes by identifying critical parameters for the successful clinical application of corneal endothelial therapies.
