Approach discussion of the differentiation of stem cells induced to retinal pigment epithelial cells / 国际眼科杂志(Guoji Yanke Zazhi)

ABSTRACT

@#In recent years, stem cell research and application in the field of ophthalmology has been highlighted, embryonic stem cells and adult stem cells can be targeted induced to differentiate into retinal pigment epithelial cells(RPE cells), which can obtain transdifferentiation of RPE cells source, through the body stem cells and retinal pigment epithelium cells transplantation is expected to be used in a variety of alternative treatment of the degenerative diseases of the retina. In this paper, the methods and application of various stem cells induced differentiation into RPE cells were discussed.
