Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of biomedicine, in particular to a blood-retinal outer barrier model and a construction method thereof, and a culture medium combination used to construct the model. Background technique
[0002] The blood-retinal barrier (BRB), consists of an inner barrier and an outer barrier. The retinal capillary endothelium and its connections form the inner blood retinal barrier (iBRB); the choriocapillary layer and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) form the outer blood retinal barrier (oBRB). Its main function is through the formation of tight junctions between RPE cells. The RPE is a monolayer of hexagonal cells with folds in the base membrane for transport and constitutes the inner layer of Bruch's membrane. Part of Bruch's membrane is composed of RPE and the other part is synthesized by choroidal cells. In addition to the RPE as a selective permeability barrier to the retina, Bruch's membrane also forms a barrier to certai...
