| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Recovery of visual function is a recent issue for regenerative medicine. Several methods, such as iPS cell-based retinal cell/tissue transplantation, recovery of visual function using channel Rhodopsin and artificial retinal implant, are in progress. On the other hand, retinal Muller glia is focused as an injury-induced retinal stem/progenitor cell in vertebrate species. Regeneration of retinal neuronal cells from Muller glia has also been studied. In this study, we examined regeneration potential of mouse Muller glia by inducing candidate regeneration promoting genes by using adeno-associated virus transfection.
