The research group was interested in the therapeutic potential of limbal fibroblasts, which are pre-sent in the corneal limbus. Recently, in much stem cell research, researchers and advocates are stress-ing the importance of utilizing cells from the niche which they will target. This means, that adiposetissue and bone marrow derived stem cells, are likely not appropriate and even dangerous to apply u-biquitously as therapies to other parts of the body in certain cases. Several research groups and clini-cal trials have shown this to be the case, including cases of blindness, brain inflammation, and deathas adverse events.
