Regeneration of retinal function using human amnion cell-derived neural progenitors.

人羊膜已经广泛移植到眼表，供应充足且容易获得。在知情同意的情况下，可以从剖宫产术中获得的人羊膜中分离和培养人羊膜细胞源性神经前体细胞。人羊膜细胞来源的神经前体细胞在视网膜下空间获得长期存活，并具有向视网膜细胞分化的潜能。视网膜电信号提示视网膜功能再生。

Human amniotic membrane is already broadly transplanted to the ocular surface , the supply is abundant and is easy to obtain. Human amnion cell-derived neural progenitors can be isolated and cultured from human amnion obtained during cesarean section under the informed consent. Human amnion cell-derived neural progenitors obtain long-term survival in the subretinal space and possess the potential of differentiating to retinal cells. Regeneration of retinal function was suggestive using electroretinogram.
