Ocular Cells

Ocular cells are a collection of specialized cells critical for the function and health of the human eye. These cells are responsible for light perception, vision, color differentiation, and depth perception. Abnormalities in their proliferation and regulation can lead to various eye diseases, including corneal inflammation, proliferative retinopathy, macular degeneration, glaucoma, and retinoblastoma. At Protheragen, we understand the importance of these cells and offer a comprehensive range of eye cell products derived from human or animal sources to support research and therapeutic development.

Types of Ocular Cells

Corneal Cells

  • Corneal Epithelial Cells: These cells form the outermost layer of the cornea and are essential for its transparency and immune response.
  • Keratocytes: Located in the corneal stroma, these cells maintain the structure and transparency of the cornea.

Retinal Cells

  • Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells (HRPEpiCs): These cells form the outer blood-retina barrier and are crucial for the health of the retina.
  • Photoreceptor Cells: Responsible for converting light into electrical signals, these cells are vital for vision.

Lens and Iris Cells

  • Lens Epithelial Cells: Involved in the development and maintenance of the lens.
  • Iris Pigment Epithelial Cells: These cells share functional properties with retinal pigment epithelial cells and are involved in the production of trophic factors.

Other Ocular Cells

  • Conjunctival Fibroblasts: These cells contribute to the structure of the conjunctiva and are involved in wound healing.
  • Trabecular Meshwork Cells: These cells play a role in the aqueous outflow mechanism and maintain eye pressure.

Product Features

  • Cryopreservation: Our cells are cryopreserved to maintain their viability and functionality, ensuring that they remain in a pristine state until use.
  • Quality Control: Each batch of cells undergoes rigorous quality control testing to ensure high viability, purity, and functionality.
  • Customization: We offer special order items for researchers who require specific cell types or customizations not available in our standard catalog.
  • Research Applications: Our ocular cells are suitable for a variety of research applications, including disease modeling, drug discovery, and toxicity testing.
