Single-cell transcriptomics of the human retinal pigment epithelium and choroid in health and macular degeneration

Updated May 24, 2022

The goals of this study were to identify cell specific expression patterns of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and a variety of choroidal cell types originating from the macula and the periphery of human donor eyes, with a particular emphasis on identifying expression signatures of choroidal endothelial cells.
