Abstract

The invention discloses a method for obtaining retinal tissue rich in cone and rod cells by using human induced pluripotent stem cells. It includes digesting hiPSCs to obtain cell pellets, and then suspending the cell pellets to obtain embryoid bodies; the embryoid bodies are then inoculated into culture dishes pre-coated with Matrigel, and induced to differentiate in the induction medium to obtain neural retina (NR) and RPE; NR and RPE were re-provoked and cultured in suspension to obtain 3D retinal tissue including NR tissue, and then continued to be cultured in suspension in an optimized culture medium without retinoic acid. NR differentiated into all retinal cells, including highly mature photoreceptors cells, Rhodopsin-positive rod cells, L / M OPSIN-positive red-green cone cells and S-OPSIN-positive blue cone cells, especially retinotopic tissues rich in red-green cone and rod cells were obtained.

Description

Technical field:

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of stem cell regeneration biology, in particular to a method for regenerating retinal-like organs from pluripotent stem cells and obtaining retinal seed cells. Background technique

[0002] Degenerative retinal disease is a major eye disease leading to irreversible blindness, mainly due to irreversible damage to photoreceptor cells, RPE cells or ganglion cells. However, there is currently no effective treatment for this disease. Stem cell therapy has brought new hope for vision recovery for this type of disease. Obtaining seed cells with similar characteristics to human retinal cells is the key to vision recovery treatment and disease mechanism research for retinal degenerative diseases.

[0003] In the past, human retinal cells were mostly isolated from aborted embryonic retinas, but the quantity was very limited, and the batch quality was difficult to control, which could not meet the needs of clinical treatment, ...
