Cellosaurus MA09-hRPE (CVCL_C1LA)

[Text version]
Cell line name MA09-hRPE
Synonyms MA09-RPE
Accession CVCL_C1LA
Resource Identification Initiative To cite this cell line use: MA09-hRPE (RRID:CVCL_C1LA)
Comments From: Astellas Institute of Regenerative Medicine (AIRM); Marlborough; USA.
Biotechnology: Used in clinical trials were it is sub-retinaly transplanted in patients with macular degeneration and Stargardt's macular dystrophy. MA09-hRPE can rescue photoreceptors and prevent loss of vision.

Omics: Transcriptome analysis by microarray.
Derived from site: In situ; Blastocyst; UBERON=UBERON_0000358.
Cell type: Retinal pigment epithelial cell; CL=CL_0002586.
Species of origin Homo sapiens (Human) (NCBI Taxonomy: 9606)
Hierarchy Parent: CVCL_C344 (MA09)
Sex of cell Female
Age at sampling Blastocyst stage
Category Finite cell line
