In vitro differentiation of retinal cells from human pluripotent stem cells by small-molecule induction

TL;DR: In this paper, a defined culture method using low-molecular mass compounds that induce differentiation of human embryonic stem (ES) cells and induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells into retinal progenitors, retinal pigment epithelium cells and photoreceptors was devised.
Journal ArticleDOI

Generation of retinal cells from mouse and human induced pluripotent stem cells.

TL;DR: It is proposed that iPSCs can be induced to differentiate into retinal cells which have a possibility to be used as patient-specific donor cells for transplantation therapies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modeling Retinal Degeneration Using Patient-Specific Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells

TL;DR: The use of patient-derived iPS cells will help to elucidate the pathogenic mechanisms caused by genetic mutations in RP, and recapitulated the disease phenotype and expressed markers of cellular stresses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hemorrhagic complications after photodynamic therapy for polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy.

TL;DR: Subretinal hemorrhage after PDT can be a common complication in patients with PCV and may have a minor effect on visual outcome, however, postoperative hemorrhage is occasionally so massive that it leads to vitreous hemorrhage and poor visual prognosis.
