Rat Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cell Line (BPEI-1)

Background: Spontaneously Arising Cell Line Of Rat Segment Epithelial Cells (RPE) Named BPEI-1 With RPE Specific Features There Are A Few Main Functions Of The RPE, Including Transport Of Nutrients, Absorption Of Light, Phagocytosis Of Shed Photoreceptor Membranes, And Secretion Of Essential Factors For The Structural Integrity Of The Retina.  Research Has Shown That The RPE Is Where Retinal Pigment Epithelium (RPE) Starts. The Retinal Pigment Layer Or Retinal Pigment Epithelium (RPE) Is A Layer Of Pigment Cells Located Between The Retinal Nerve And The Choroid. RPE Has Several Main Functions, Including Transportation Of Nutrients, Absorption Of Light, Phagocytosis Of Detached Photoreceptor Membranes, And Secretion Of Basic Factors Of Retinal Structural Integrity. Research Shows That RPE Is The Place Where Macular Degeneration Begins.
