Chitosan Feasibility to Retain Retinal Stem Cell Phenotype and Slow Proliferation for Retinal Transplantation

Figure 2

RSCs cultivated in standard culture medium supplemented with 10% FBS expressed the proteins (green) of different retinal cell types. Expression of protein; (a) GFAP (astrocyte), (b) isolectin (microglial cells), (c) PKC (rod bipolar cells), (d) recoverin (photoreceptor), (e) RPE65 (RPE cells). Rhodamine-phalloidin and DAPI staining showed actin (red) and nucleus (blue). The arrow showed the cells which are not expressing the proteins studied.
