Notch prevents transforming growth factor-beta-assisted epithelial–mesenchymal transition in cultured limbal progenitor cells through the induction of Smad7

PURPOSE: Continuous culture of limbal epithelial stem cells (LSCs) slows down proliferation, which inevitably results in differentiation. Transforming growth factor-beta (TGFβ)-assisted epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) is often found in the late stage of LSC culture. Thus, EMT is proposed to...
