«Previous studies primarily focused on neurons and the retinal pigment epithelium cells as culprits in degeneration,» said Eroglu, who is also a member of the Duke Institute for Brain Sciences (DIBS).

Cell therapy, as envisaged by the teams of I - Stem, is primarily based on the identification of experimental protocols that can specifically guide differentiation of pluripotent cells to a cell fate, which presents a interest for the replacement of the defective cell population from the patient (the striatal neurons for Huntington's disease, the cells of the retinal pigment epithelium for retinitis pigmentosa, keratinocytes for genodermatoses, etCell therapy, as envisaged by the teams of I - Stem, is primarily based on the identification of experimental protocols that can specifically guide differentiation of pluripotent cells to a cell fate, which presents a interest for the replacement of the defective cell population from the patient (the striatal neurons for Huntington's disease, the cells of the retinal pigment epithelium for retinitis pigmentosa, keratinocytes for genodermatoses, etcell fate, which presents a interest for the replacement of the defective cell population from the patient (the striatal neurons for Huntington's disease, the cells of the retinal pigment epithelium for retinitis pigmentosa, keratinocytes for genodermatoses, etcell population from the patient (the striatal neurons for Huntington's disease, the cells of the retinal pigment epithelium for retinitis pigmentosa, keratinocytes for genodermatoses, etc.).

The retinal neurons rely on their supporting cells, such as retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells, to provide them with the fuel to meet their energy needs.

To further examine the morphology of cells and the localization of protein expression within the retina, immunohistochemical staining of both paraffin and OCT retinal sections was performed with the following antibodies (Table S1): human cone arrestin (for cone photoreceptors), rhodopsin (for rod photoreceptors), RPE65 (for the retinal pigment epithelium, RPE), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP, for astrocytes and Müller cells), glutamine synthetase (for Müller cells) and G0alpha (for ON bipolar cells).
