Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a fundus disease characterized by degeneration of retinal photoreceptor cells, RPE cells and choroidal capillaries. The pathogenesis is not clear and there is no effective treatment. Cell therapies can slow or reverse the vision loss of AMD in animal models, which include implantation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, pluripotent stem cells, RPE cells into the subretinal cavity. Therefore, cell therapy is a promising strategy for the treatment of AMD.
