Mature Endothelial Cells (CrE)


Eye.CrE.MEnCs
Mature corneal endothelial cells are arranged in a single layer that is critical for maintaining hydration of the corneal stroma, via metabolic pumps that actively transport fluid out of the stroma and into the anterior chamber.

Corneal endothelial cells are unique endothelial cells, as they are originated from neural crest cells.
