## Abstract Recent studies have suggested that bone marrow‐derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) are capable of retinal tissue‐specific differentiation but not retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cell‐specific differentiation. Photoreceptor outer segments (POS) contribute to RPE development and matu
## Abstract Neuronal degeneration and aberrant neovascularization are common problems of ischemic retinopathies. Pigment epithelium‐derived factor (PEDF), a neuroprotective protein and an inhibitor of angiogenesis, is produced by retinal glial (Müller) cells and can counterbalance elevated levels o
Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells in culture display selective induction of certain early response transcription factors at the onset of photoreceptor rod outer segment (ROS)-specific phagocytosis (Ershov et al., 1996a). Moreover, this response is modulated by prostaglandins. The purpose of thi
