ES Micro-Environment Enhances Stemness and Inhibits Apoptosis in Human Limbal Stem Cells via the Maintenance of Telomerase Activity
Figure 8
Model graph for the functional role of the ES micro-environment in LSC.
The telomerase-p21-mitochondrial axis, telomerase activity and the activation of the FAK/Wnt signaling pathways enhance the maintenance of undifferentiated status and the inhibition of apoptosis in human limbal stem cells cultured in ESC-CM.
