Inhibition of T-Cell Activation by Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells Derived From Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells [Immunology and Microbiology]

Conclusions.
Cultured iPS-derived retinal cells fully suppress T-cell activation. Transplantation of iPS-RPE cells into the eye might be a therapy for retinal disorders.
