Retinal cell map could advance precise therapies for blinding diseases Posted: 06 May 2022 12:14 PM PDT Researchers have identified distinct differences among the cells comprising a tissue in the retina that is vital to human visual perception. The scientists discovered five subpopulations of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) -- a layer of tissue that nourishes and supports the retina's light-sensing photoreceptors.
