The purpose of this study was to identify limbal stem cells in the culture of human donor cornea. After standard cultivation procedure we used monoclonal antibody against alpha-enolase for identification of stem cells. This antibody serves as a probe for the identification of biochemical marker of stem cells. Using immunofluorescent microscopy we identified in specimens alpha-enolase positive cells which in vitro but not in situ showed also some morphologic differences from other cellular elements of the culture.
