The adult retinal stem cell is a rare cell in the ciliary epithelium whose progeny can differentiate into photoreceptors

Self-renewing, multipotential retinal stem cells (RSCs) reside in the pigmented ciliary epithelium of the peripheral retina in adult mammals. RSCs can give rise to rhodopsin positive-cells, which can integrate into early postnatal retina, and represent a potentially useful option for cellular therap...
