Compositions and methods of promoting wound healing in a human by administering to the human mesenchymal stem cells in an effective amount.

Mesenchymal stem cells and uses therefor

An apparatus for isolating corneal endothelial cells (CECs) includes a housing with an interior wall that defines a hollow interior of the housing. At least four fluid channels are formed in the housing with two of the channels terminating in respective openings in an upper portion of the interior wall and two of the channels terminating in respective jets in the upper portion of the interior wall. A convex projection is centrally located on the circular base of the hollow interior and is configured to receive an inverted cornea. A circular insert for the housing has an opening therein in which the convex projection projects when the insert is mated with the lower portion of the interior wall. CECs are harvested from the inverted cornea.
