Culture of Iris Pigment Epithelial Cells on Expanded-Polytetrafluroethylene (ePTFE) Substrates for the Treatment of Age-Related Macular Degeneration
Introduction: Transplantation of an intact differentiated retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cell layer may provide a means to treat Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD). However, harvesting RPE cells can be a technically complicated procedure. Our current work aimed to prepare intact differentiated...
