Abstract:
Retinal pgment epithelial (RPE) cells plays a key role in maintaining the normal physiological function and structure of retina and choroids.However,RPE cells are vulnerably damaged by many detrimental factors,such as anoxia,physical and chemical elements,pharmic,immunizing factors and oxidant stress,etc.The damage of RPE cells lead to multiple eye diseases,and therefore cause severe abnormality of visual function.To understand the causative factors of RPE cell-related eye diseases is very important for the prevention and treatment of these diseases.Recently,many studies about damage factors and treatments for RPE cells have received more attention.This article reviews the advances in RPE cell-related eye diseases.
