The human retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is a potential target tissue for directed transfer of candidate genes to treat age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The RPE is uniquely suited to gene therapy protocols that use liposome-mediated DNA transfer because of its high intrinsic phagocytic func
Membrane conductances for Ca2+ in cultured rat pigment epithelial cells were studied in the whole-cell configuration of the patch-clamp technique using barium (10 mM) as a charge carrier. Two types of voltage-dependent and verapamiland diltiazem-sensitive Ba2+ currents were observed. First, a nearly
To determine the mechanism of growth and differentiation of retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells it is important to understand the pathogenesis of several retinal diseases. Recently it has been reported that several cytokines and neuropeptides regulate the growth of RPE cells. In this study, the r
