{"data":{"id":36,"name":"Corneal Endothelium","abbreviation":"Endothelium","description":"<p>The corneal endothelium is a thin, inner monolayer of specialized cells lining the posterior surface of the cornea, adjacent to Descemet\u2019s membrane and facing the aqueous humor. These cells do not regenerate significantly; instead, neighboring cells enlarge to cover defects. A key function is active fluid and ion pumping out of the stroma to maintain correct hydration and prevent swelling, thus preserving transparency. Damage or loss of endothelial cells leads to stromal edema, haze, and decreased visual acuity.<\/p>","categories":[{"id":155,"title":"Experimental","breadcrumb":[{"id":73,"title":"Eye"},{"id":155,"title":"Experimental"}]}],"url":"https:\/\/molmedb.upol.cz\/api\/v1\/membranes\/36","landing_page":"https:\/\/molmedb.upol.cz\/membrane\/36","created_at":"2019-08-20T15:59:03.000000Z","updated_at":"2026-06-28T17:26:15.000000Z"}}
