Anatomy & Function of RPE
• Immune barrier
• Absorption of stray light
• Vit A metabolism & transport
• Phagocytosis of shed
photoreceptor segments
FUNCTIONS OF RPE
Diseases Associated with RPE dysfunction
• Age-related macular degeneration
• Retinitis pigmentosa
• Stargardt's disease
• Best's vitelliform macular dystrophy
• Leber's congenital amaurosis
Animal models of RPE
dysfunction
• Royal College of Surgeons (RCS) rat (MERTK mutation,
phagocytosis-impaired)
• Mouse models: RPE65 -/-; rd-mouse (cGMP-
phosphodiesterase mutation, loss of rods)
• Dog (Briard, RPE65 mutation)
• Monkey (rhesus monkey with naturally occurring macular
degeneration)
Transplantation of RPE in Humans
Associated problemsSources of RPE cells
* autologous tissue
* cell lines
* donor tissue (adult, fetal) safety ethical Batch-to-batch
variation
may have impaired function limited supply
Potential tumorigenicity
Advantages of ECS-derived Tissues for Regenerative
Medicine
• Unlimited supply
• Can be derived under GMP conditions pathogen-
free
• Can be produced with minimal batch to batch
variation
• Can be thoroughly characterized to ensure optimal
performance

Summary
• hES-RPE is similar to its in vivo counterpart by multiple parameters
(morphology, behavior, phagocytosis, molecular markers)
• hES-RPE can be reproducibly generated from hES cells
• hES-RPE attenuates photoreceptor loss in animal model of retinal degeneration
hES-RPE advantages
• Minimize batch-to-batch variation
• Can be derived under GMP conditions
• Can be produced from feeder-free hES cells
• Can be easily generated in large quantities
(for pathogen & safety assessment, and pre-clinical & clinical studies)
hES-RPE: ongoing pre-clinical studies
and research goals
• functional studies in animal models with different batches of cells
(more and less differentiated, different passages, different lines)
• finding reliable markers for predicting therapeutic value
of newly generated cells
• studies of hES-RPE survival on Bruch’s membrane
• production of hES-RPE under GMP conditions
• dosage and safety studies of hES-RPE in animal models
Generation of ES cells using parthenogenesis
WBC colony from cloned stem cells
•Cardiovascular disease costs the US $329 billion annually
Is it possible to generate ES cells without destroying
embryos?
• The most basic objection to ES cell research is that it deprives
embryos
of any further potential to develop into complete human beings
• For a decade, PGD has been used successfully to remove a single
cell (blastomere) for genetic testing without interfering with the
developmental potential of the biopsied embryo. Over 2,000
healthy babies have been born using this procedure
• Question: Can such a biopsied cell be used to generate ES cells?

  • 25. Summary • hES-RPE is similar to its in vivo counterpart by multiple parameters (morphology, behavior, phagocytosis, molecular markers) • hES-RPE can be reproducibly generated from hES cells • hES-RPE attenuates photoreceptor loss in animal model of retinal degeneration hES-RPE advantages • Minimize batch-to-batch variation • Can be derived under GMP conditions • Can be produced from feeder-free hES cells • Can be easily generated in large quantities (for pathogen & safety assessment, and pre-clinical & clinical studies)
  • 26. hES-RPE: ongoing pre-clinical studies and research goals • functional studies in animal models with different batches of cells (more and less differentiated, different passages, different lines) • finding reliable markers for predicting therapeutic value of newly generated cells • studies of hES-RPE survival on Bruch’s membrane • production of hES-RPE under GMP conditions • dosage and safety studies of hES-RPE in animal models

  • 31. WBC colony from cloned stem cells
  • 32. •Cardiovascular disease costs the US $329 billion annually
  • 33.
  • 34. Is it possible to generate ES cells without destroying embryos? • The most basic objection to ES cell research is that it deprives embryos of any further potential to develop into complete human beings • For a decade, PGD has been used successfully to remove a single cell (blastomere) for genetic testing without interfering with the developmental potential of the biopsied embryo. Over 2,000 healthy babies have been born using this procedure • Question: Can such a biopsied cell be used to generate ES cells?
