Characteristics of normal human retinal pigment epithelium cells with extremes of autofluorescence or intracellular granule count

BACKGROUND: Cells of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) accumulate different kinds of granules (lipofuscin, melanolipofuscin, melanosomes) within their cell bodies, with lipofuscin and melanolipofuscin being autofluorescent after blue light excitation. High amounts of lipofuscin granules within th...
