Abstract:
Retinal pigment epithelium cells play a key role in maintaining the normal function of retina and can express several neurotrophic factors, which support the neurosensory retina and may also provide trophic signals to the host dopaminergic neurons. The following chapter describes a protocol for the purification and culture of retinal pigmented epithelial cells from postnatal rat.
