Generation of Femtosecond Laser-Cut Decellularized Corneal Lenticule Using Hypotonic Trypsin-EDTA Solution for Corneal Tissue Engineering

Figure 8

Subcutaneous implantation of the DCL and untreated lenticules in the experimental mouse model. Two weeks after implantation with naive lenticule or DCL, marked inflammatory cells were observed. However, at 12 weeks, DCLs exhibited relatively fewer inflammatory reactions (d) compared to naive lenticules (c). Original magnification is ×100. Scale bar indicates 100 μm.
