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

Retinal pigment epithelial cells, which form one aspect of the blood-retinal barrier, take up iron in association with transferrin by a typical receptor-mediated mechanism (Hunt et al., 1989. J.

We have found that hydrogen peroxide (10^−4^ − 10^−2^ M) rapidly induces microvilli on separate cells and confluent sheets of human retinal pigment epithelium in culture. t‐butyl hydroperoxide and sodium arsenite do not induce microvilli. A role for hydrogen peroxide as an intercellular messenger ha

## Abstract In this work, we have evaluated the effect of the new discovered peptide obestatin on cell proliferation in primary cultures of human retinal epithelial cells (hRPE cells). The results showed that this peptide induced, in a dose‐dependent manner, cell proliferation by MEK/ERK 1/2 phosph
