Research progression on mesenchymal stem cells in dry eye / 眼科新进展

ABSTRACT

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent stromal cells derived from the mesoderm that can differentiate into a variety of cell types.Recently,as the study of MSCs in the treatment of various autoimmune diseases is maturing,more and more researchers have advocated the immune function of MSCs and the treatment for dry eye.The rate of dry eye is higher.The duration of therapy in dry eye,especially immune related dry eye,is long,and the therapeutic effect is poor.Dry eye has affected people's quality of life,so it is important to find new methods to treat it.This article reviews MSCs function in dry eye.
