Stimulation of c-Kit+ Retinal Progenitor Cells by Stem Cell Factor Confers Protection Against Retinal Degeneration
2021-08-27
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background c-Kit/CD117, expressed in a series of tissue-specific progenitor cells, plays an important role in tissue regeneration and tissue homeostasis. We previously demonstrated that organoid-derived c-Kit<sup>+</sup> retinal progenitor cells can facilitate the restoration of degenerated retina. Meanwhile, we have identified a population of endogenous c-Kit<sup>+</sup> cells in reti...
