Description | Human retinal pigment epithelial (HRPE) cells are isolated from human retinal pigment tissue with the digestion by collagenase. They are a single layer of densely packed regular polygonal cells, filled with pigment granules, and positioned at the outermost layer of the retina. Within the HRPE cells, microvillous structures extend between photoreceptor outer segments (POS), contributing to the HRPE’s phagocytic function. The integrity and functionality of the HRPE are crucial, as any impairment can give rise to a range of retinopathies, for which effective treatments are currently lacking. Moreover, damage to RPE cells is closely associated with numerous retinal degenerative conditions, including age-related macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa, and Stargardt’s disease.

Application | FOR RESEARCH USE ONLY Understanding the normal function of HRPE cells and their role in retinal diseases is crucial for preventing and treating retinopathies. The HRPE is a vital layer of cells between the retina and choroid, responsible for maintaining retinal health and performing essential functions. By studying HRPE cells, we gain insights into the development, function, and pathobiology of the HRPE, enabling us to address conditions such as age-related macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa, diabetic retinopathy, photoreceptor degeneration, gene expression, and cellular interactions. These investigations provide valuable knowledge for improving diagnosis, understanding disease mechanisms, and developing effective therapeutic interventions.
