Title of Invention PREPARATION OF RETINAL PIGMENT EPITHELIUM CELLS
Abstract

Provided is a method for generating retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells comprising steps of (a) culturing a cell population of undifferentiated human pluripotent stem cells on an adherent surface in a medium comprising a differentiating agent to obtain differentiating cells and (b) culturing said differentiating cells on said adherent surface in a medium which comprises one or more members of the TGFβ superfamily to obtain RPE cells.
