The secretome of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells attenuates epithelial–mesenchymal transition in human corneal epithelium

Introduction: Epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) induces the loss of cell–cell interactions in polarized epithelial cells and converts these cells to invasive mesenchymal-like cells. It is also involved in tissue fibrosis including that occurring in some ocular surface diseases such as pterygiu...
