  • Chambered warm moist air eyelid warming devices – a review 
    Magno, Morten Schjerven; Olafsson, Jonatan; Beining, Marie; Moschowits, Emily; Lagali, Neil; Wolffsohn, James S.; Craig, Jennifer P.; Dartt, Darlene A.; Vehof, Jelle; Utheim, Tor P. (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)
    Background Eyelid warming is an important treatment for meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). Specialized chambered devices, using warm moist air have been developed. Purpose To critically evaluate the literature on ...
  • Concise Review: Comparison of Culture Membranes Used for Tissue Engineered Conjunctival Epithelial Equivalents 
    Eidet, Jon Roger; Dartt, Darlene A.; Utheim, Tor Paaske (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2015)
    The conjunctival epithelium plays an important role in ensuring the optical clarity of the cornea by providing lubrication to maintain a smooth, refractive surface, by producing mucins critical for tear film stability and ...
  • Effect of Storage Temperature on Structure and Function of Cultured Human Oral Keratinocytes 
    Islam, Rakibul; Jackson, Catherine; Eidet, Jon Roger; Messelt, Edward B.; Corraya, Rima Maria; Lyberg, Torstein; Griffith, May; Dartt, Darlene A.; Utheim, Tor Paaske (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2015)
    Purpose/Aims To assess the effect of storage temperature on the viability, phenotype, metabolism, and morphology of cultured human oral keratinocytes (HOK). Materials and Methods Cultured HOK cells were stored in HEPES- ...
  • Effects of explant size on epithelial outgrowth, thickness, stratification, ultrastructure and phenotype of cultured limbal epithelial cells 
    Utheim, Øygunn Aass; Pasovic, Lara; Ræder, Sten; Eidet, Jon Roger; Fostad, Ida; Sehic, Amer; Roald, Borghild; de la Paz, Maria Fideliz; Lyberg, Torstein; Dartt, Darlene A.; Utheim, Tor Paaske (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)
    Purpose Transplantation of limbal stem cells is a promising therapy for limbal stem cell deficiency. Limbal cells can be harvested from either a healthy part of the patient’s eye or the eye of a donor. Small explants are ...
