Abstract excerpt
AIM: To generate and characterize a telomerase-immortalized human retinal microvascular endothelial cell (HREC) line. This cell line may be utilized as an in vitro model to study the molecular basis of several diseases of the human retina. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Primary retinal neuronal cells were isolated and transfected with plasmid encoding full-length human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT)....
