The cryopreserved formulation of a therapeutic candidate for retinitis pigmentosa (RP), based on human retinal progenitor cell (hRPC), has been approved by the FDA.

If the EFTFs induce multipotent retinal progenitor cells, every retinal cell class, including retinal stem cells, should form in induced eyes.

Dissecting cell cycle events and their links to cytoskeletal dynamics in retinal progenitor cells

But it was another three decades before Klassen — who has used retinal progenitor cells to restore vision in mice, cats, dogs and pigs — could conduct human trials involving retinitis pigmentosa.

Pluripotent colonies first emerged after 20 days, and to derive retinal progenitor cells (RPCs), the researchers then differentiated iPSCs as embryoid bodies (EBs) in neuronal induction medium containing Noggin to produce cells which expressed neuroectodermal progenitor markers (Nestin and Musashi) and the pro ‐ neural transcription factor Mash1.

Instead of starting with embryonic stem cells, as Astellas does, several other research groups are working with retinal progenitor cells found in the eye.

These results suggest the fate of pluripotent cells may be purposely altered to generate multipotent retinal progenitor cells, which differentiate into functional retinal cell classes and form a neural circuitry sufficient for vision.

retinitis pigmentosa (RP), based on human retinal progenitor cell (hRPC), has been approved by the FDA.

In June 2015, she became the first patient in North America to receive an eye injection of about half a million retinal progenitor cells.

ReNeuron Group plc (UK) has received a new # 1.5 million grant from Innovate UK to advance development of its human retinal progenitor cell (hRPC) candidate for retinitis pigmentosa, currently being tested in a US Phase I / II trial.
