Human iPSC-derived retinal pigment epithelium: a model system for identifying and functionally characterizing causal variants at AMD risk loci

2018-10-11

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> We evaluate whether human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived retinal pigment epithelium (iPSC-RPE) cells can be used to prioritize and functionally characterize causal variants at age-related macular degeneration (AMD) risk loci. We generated iPSC-RPE from six subjects and show that they have morphological and molecular characteristics similar to native RPE. We generated RNA-seq, ATAC-seq, and...
