Isolation and characterisation of neural progenitor cells from the adult Chx10(orJ/orJ) central neural retina.

Retinal stem cells have been isolated from the ciliary epithelium (CE) of the mammalian retina. However, the central neural retina (CNR) lacks the capability to regenerate, a phenomenon retained by lower vertebrates. Mutations in the Chx10 homeobox gene cause reduced proliferation of retinal progeni...
