Song et al. (Nature Methods, 2022) engineered a 3D model of the human outer blood-retina barrier (oBRB) that recapitulates key features of healthy and age-related macular degeneration (AMD)-affected eyes. We shine a spotlight on this tissue-engineering triumph that has the potential to transform preclinical studies of AMD and other eye diseases.
宋等人(《自然方法》,2022年)构建了一种人类视网膜外血视网膜屏障(oBRB)的三维模型,该模型概括了健康眼睛和与年龄相关的黄斑变性(AMD)受累眼睛的关键特征。我们聚焦于这一组织工程学上的重大成就,它有可能改变AMD及其他眼部疾病的临床前研究。
