Intrastromal Lamellar Keratoprosthesis (Artificial Cornea) (Case No. 2025-177)

Summary: UCLA researchers in the Department of Ophthalmology have developed an intrastromal artificial cornea implant designed to enhance biointegration and effectively restore vision. Background: Corneal opacities are among the top five causes of blindness worldwide. For patients who are not candidates for conventional corneal transplantation, keratoprosthesis...

2020-421 EXTRACELLULAR VESICLES DERIVED FROM INDUCED PLURIPOTENT STEM CELLS FOR IMMUNOMODULATION

UCLA researchers in the Department of Bioengineering have developed a method to boost extracellular vesicles' (EVs) production and potency, potentially allowing large-scale clinical-grade EV manufacture for immunomodulatory therapeutics. BACKGROUNDExtracellular vesicles (EVs) are one of the most important mediators of cell-to-cell communication. EVs...
