Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method for producing an epithelial cell sheet, comprising culturing cells derived from oral mucosal epithelial cells on a substrate in a serum-free medium, wherein the serum-free medium comprises (i) EGF protein or KGF protein, (ii) B-27 supplement, and (iii) a ROCK inhibitor.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for producing an epithelial cell sheet in which cells that express an epithelial stem cell marker, a proliferating cell marker, and corneal epithelial cell marker keratin 12 and maintain a property as stem cells are present, the method comprising culturing cells derived from oral mucosal epithelium on a substrate in a serum-free medium, wherein the serum-free medium comprises (i) EGF protein or KGF protein, (ii) a serum-free supplement comprising biotin, L-carnitine, corticosterone, ethanolamine, D(+) galactose, reduced glutathione, linoleic acid, linolenic acid, progesterone, putrescine, retinyl acetate, selenium, triiodo-L-thyronine, vitamin E, vitamin E acetate, bovine albumin, catalase, insulin, superoxide dismutase, and transferrin, (iii) a ROCK inhibitor, and (iv) one or more catechin. 2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the medium further comprises at least one member selected from the group consisting of (v) polysaccharides, and (vi) corticoids.
