Abstract Background Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) replacement has been proposed as an efficacious treatment for age-related macular degeneration (AMD), which is the primary cause of vision loss in the elderly worldwide. The embryonic stem cell (ESC) microenvironment has been demonstrated to enabl...
