Triphasic developmentally guided protocol to generate retinal pigment epithelium from induced pluripotent stem cells

RPE tissues are derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) to model retinal diseases and as a replacement therapy for macular degeneration. Here, we developed a robust and efficient directed differentiation protocol to generate pure RPE cells that form a polarized monolayer. This protocol d...

Sumario:RPE tissues are derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) to model retinal diseases and as a replacement therapy for macular degeneration. Here, we developed a robust and efficient directed differentiation protocol to generate pure RPE cells that form a polarized monolayer. This protocol describes how to set up RPE differentiation and to obtain a pure population that expresses mature RPE markers and forms strong tight junctions. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Sharma et al., 2019, Sharma et al., 2021 and Miyagishima et al. (2021).
