Cell-based therapy rescues retinal structure and function in rodent models of retinal disease, but translation to clinic will require more information about consequences of transplantation in an eye closely resembling the human eye. Therefore we explored donor cell behavior using human cortical neural progenitor cells (hNPCctx) introduced into the subretinal space of normal rhesus macaques. hNPCctx transduced with Green Fluorescent Protein (hNPCctx-GFP) were delivered bilaterally into the subretinal space of six normal adult rhesus macaques under conditions paralleling those of the human operating room. Outcome measures included clinical parameters of surgical success, multifocal electroretinogram (mfERG) and histopathological analyses performed between 3 and 39 days post-engraftment. To test the effects of GFP transduction on cell bioactivity, hNPCctx –GFP from the same batch were also injected into RCS rats and compared with non-labeled hNPCctx. Studies using RCS rats indicated that GFP transduction did not alter the ability of the cells to rescue vision. After cells were introduced into the monkey subretinal space by a pars plana transvitreal approach, the resulting detachment was rapidly resolved and retinal function showed little or no disturbance in mfERG recordings. Retinal structure was unaffected and no signs of inflammation or rejection were seen. Donor cells survived as a single layer in the subretinal space and no cells migrated into the inner retina. Human neural progenitor cells can be introduced into a primate eye without complication, using an approach that would be suitable for extrapolation to human patients.
