Effect of low oxygen tension on the growth of bovine corneal endothelial cells in vitro.
The proliferation of bovine corneal endothelial cells cultured in low (6%) and normal (20%) oxygen concentration in the gas phase was compared. Low oxygen tension significantly stimulated cell multiplication and DNA synthesis of the cultured cells.
