The present invention discloses a method for culturing vitreoretinal organoids
in vitro, comprising the following steps: (1) amplifying and culturing pluripotent stem cells to a
cell confluence of 50% to 90%; (2) on day 0, digesting the stem cells with a
digestion solution; adding a
neurosphere culture medium for culturing; adding
matrigel for culturing, and then adding a
neurosphere culture medium for culturing to obtain a
cell suspension; (3) adding a ROCK pathway inhibitor to the
cell suspension, and culturing in the
neurosphere culture medium for 3 to 5 days to obtain
ectoderm neurospheres; (4) replacing the neurosphere culture medium with a vitreous culture medium I, adding TGFB1
protein, and placing the cell suspension on a
shaker for 25 to 28 days; (5) replacing the vitreous culture medium I with a vitreous culture medium II, and culturing the cell suspension for 60 to 300 days to obtain vitreoretinal organoids. The vitreous organoids of the
retina cultured
in vitro according to the present invention can simulate the vitreous
in vivo.
