A New Strategy to Identify and Annotate Human RPE-Specific Gene Expression
7 May 2010
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: To identify and functionally annotate cell type-specific gene expression in the human retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), a key tissue involved in age-related macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa. METHODOLOGY: RPE, photoreceptor and choroidal cells were isolated from selected freshly frozen healthy human donor eyes using laser microdissection. RNA isolation, amplification and hybridization to...
