Development-related mitochondrial properties of retinal pigment epithelium cells derived from hEROs [PDF]
AIM: To explore the temporal mitochondrial characteristics of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells obtained from human embryonic stem cells (hESC)-derived retinal organoids (hEROs-RPE), to verify the optimal period for using hEROs-RPE as donor cells ...

Retinal pigment epithelium degeneration caused by aggregation of PRPF31 and the role of HSP70 family of proteins [PDF]
Background Mutations in pre-mRNA splicing factor PRPF31 can lead to retinitis pigmentosa (RP). Although the exact disease mechanism remains unknown, it has been hypothesized that haploinsufficiency might be involved in the ...

Dysfunctional autophagy in RPE, a contributing factor in age-related macular degeneration
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a devastating neurodegenerative disease and a major cause of blindness in the developed world. Owing to its complexity and the lack of an adequate human model that recapitulates key aspects of the disease, the ...

Replacement of the RPE monolayer [PDF]
There are numerous scenarios in which replacing the diseased RPE monolayer is an attractive but as yet unrealised goal. The proof of concept that vision can be improved by placing a healthy neuroretina onto a different, healthy, underlying RPE layer is demonstrated in patch graft transplantations.

Autophagy in the eye: from physiology to pathophysiology
Autophagy is a catabolic self-degradative pathway that promotes the degradation and recycling of intracellular material through the lysosomal compartment. Although first believed to function in conditions of nutritional stress, autophagy is emerging as a

Early stages of retinal development depend on Sec13 function [PDF]
Summary ER-to-Golgi transport of proteins destined for the extracellular space or intracellular compartments depends on the COPII vesicle coat and is constitutive in all translationally active cells.

Perspective on AMD Pathobiology: A Bioenergetic Crisis in the RPE
AMD is the leading cause of blindness in developed countries. The dry form of AMD, also known as atrophic AMD, is characterized by the death of RPE and photoreceptors.

Deletion of TSPO resulted in change of metabolomic profile in retinal pigment epithelial cells [PDF]
Age-related macular degeneration is the main cause of vision loss in the aged population worldwide. Drusen, extracellular lesions formed underneath the retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells, are a clinical feature of AMD and associated with AMD ...
