Mechanistic insights into conjunctivalization in limbal stem cell deficiency using a lineage tracing approach
GCM is a pathological process, as opposed to CjTD, which is the cornea's attempt to self-repair. The co-existence of two fundamentally diverse cellular interchanges establishes a medical conundrum in LSCD which may be resolved via pharmacological or biological intervention in conjunction with surgery to replenish the stem cell pool.
