Mouse Retinal Photoreceptor Cells-661W-RFP-Puro

Product Overview

661W mouse retinal photoreceptor cells are an immortalized cell line derived from transgenic mice, possessing characteristics of both retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and photoreceptor cells. This cell line originated from transgenic mice expressing the SV40 T-antigen under the control of the human interphotoreceptor retinoid-binding protein promoter. It is used to study diseases such as inherited retinal degeneration (IRD), glaucoma, macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa (RP) caused by rhodopsin mutations, and retinal ciliopathies. Additionally, 661W cells can be used to investigate phototransduction and retinal function. The cells were transfected with lentivirus to carry the RFP gene.
