PEDF and VEGF-A Output from Human Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells Grown on Novel Microcarriers

Figure 1

Example photomicrographs for hRPE cells grown on different plastic-based microcarrier types at 1 month (A, C, E) and two months (B, D, F). Hillex II microcarriers are shown in A and B, Plastic Plus microcarriers are shown in C and D, and ProNectin F microcarriers are illustrated in E and F. Note the characteristic melanin pigment and the polygonal morphology reminiscent of the normal histological features found in vivo. Scale bar = 100 μm.
