Description
TKE2 is the first cell line of mouse corneal epithelial progenitor cells isolated from the basal layer of the limbal epithelium.TKE2 has applications in the cell biology of corneal epithelial cells, toxicity, and differentiation. TKE2 can be induced to differentiate into stratified epithelium on increasing the calcium concentration and addition of foetal bovine serum.
