Stimulating neurogenesis of distinct retinal lineages in human retinal pigmented epithelium (RPE) with proneural transcription factors

Lew Kaplan, Abigail L. Green, Jaz Pang, Marina Pavlou, Juliette Wohlschlegel, Thomas A. Reh

The paper identifies NEUROD1 as a factor that, when combined with ASCL1, bFGF, and an Activin A inhibitor, can reprogram human RPE into photoreceptor-like cells.

Dynamic expression of ASCL1 drives neurogenesis from infant and adult macaque Müller glia into immature retinal ganglion cells

Marina Pavlou, Juliette Wohlschlegel, Josh Hahn, Lew Kaplan, Fred M Rieke, Michael B. Manookin, Isabel Ortuño‐Lizarán, Marlene Probst, Aric Prieve, Thomas A. Reh

This study shows that ASCL1 can reprogram adult and infant macaque Müller glia into retinal ganglion cell-like neurons using a modified vector cassette.

AAV-mediated expression of proneural factors stimulates neurogenesis from adult Müller glia in vivo.

Marina Pavlou, Marlene Probst, Elizaveta Filippova, Lew Kaplan, Aric Prieve, Fred M Rieke, Thomas A. Reh

This study shows that AAV-mediated delivery of proneural factors to adult Müller glia stimulates neurogenesis in vivo, producing neurons similar to those in the retina.
