Abstract

Transplantation of pigment epithelial cells is a promising treatment modality to repair retinal damage in age-related macular degeneration. For this purpose, it is necessary to establish cell culture techniques that allow acquisition of proper functional and morphological characteristics by the cells to be transplanted.
