Journal ArticleDOI

Tumorigenicity studies of induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) for the treatment of age-related macular degeneration.

TL;DR: The tumorigenic potential of induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) for the treatment of wet-type, age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is reported and it is concluded that the iPSC-derived RPE was negligible.
Journal ArticleDOI

Design of a Tumorigenicity Test for Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell (iPSC)-Derived Cell Products

TL;DR: The points to be considered in the design and execution of tumorigenicity tests are outlined, referring to the tests and laboratory work that have been conducted for an iPSC-derived retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cell product prior to its clinical use.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pigment epithelium-derived factor secreted from retinal pigment epithelium facilitates apoptotic cell death of iPSC.

TL;DR: It is shown that pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF), which is secreted from primary or iPSC-derived retinal pigment epithellium (RPE), dramatically inhibits the growth of iPSCs, and tumor formation in NOG mice after subcutaneous injection with or without an iPSc-derived RPE sheet is examined.
Patent

Cell sorting method

TL;DR: A pigment epithelium-derived factor with the differentiated cell population to induce apoptosis of the undifferentiated cells was used for cell transplantation therapy and for inducing apoptosis as discussed by the authors.
