Human Conjunctival Epithelial Cells from AcceGen Research Laboratories are isolated from human conjunctiva.
Human Conjunctival Epithelial Cells (HConEpiC) are isolated from human conjunctival tissue and cryopreserved at early passage to ensure optimal viability and functionality. These epithelial cells exhibit a characteristic cobblestone morphology. HConEpiC express epithelial markers cytokeratin-18 and cytokeratin-19. They play a critical role in maintaining ocular surface health by secreting mucins, electrolytes, and water, all of which contribute to the stability and function of the tear film. The cells undergo rigorous screening and isolation procedures, and are rigorously tested to ensure they are free of contamination from HIV-1, HBV, HCV, syphilis, mycoplasma, fungi, yeast, and bacteria. Repeated freeze-thaw cycles should be avoided during handling to preserve cell quality.

Human Conjunctival Epithelial Cells provide an in vitro model to study ocular surface immunity, dry eye disease, and epithelial barrier functions in response to allergens, irritants, or pathogens. These cells are vital for understanding tear film regulation, goblet cell function, and cytokine signaling, especially in allergic conjunctivitis and ocular drug delivery studies.
