- Cell replacement of the degenerated RPE layer with a RPE layer
generated from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs)
Human embryonic stem cells RPE cells Denuded Human amniotic membrane Photoreceptors Microvilli Nutrients in Waste out Tissue Engineering product (TEP) Brüch’s membrane
SFGM-TC, 2018
Polarized RPE cells
Non-proliferative Better survival in advanced stages of disease Do not migrate Increased growth factor secretion Better integration
Membrane support
Biological Substrate for RPE to attach & polarize 50-100 mm thickness Non immunogen Anti-inflammatory properties Already used for corneal implantations (ANSM PPT44) Not a limiting source (200-300 ceasarean/year at AP-HP)
