NHCE cells are isolated from the progenitor-rich limbal region of whole corneas.  MatTek’s NHCE cells are characterized by their cobblestone morphology and positive expression of cytokeratin 3/12, cytokeratin 15 and aldehyde dehydrogenase 3A1.

Donor-matched corneal keratocytes (NHCK) are available upon request.
