Comparison of efficacy of topical and oral fluconazole treatment in experimental Aspergillus keratitis.

abstract：:Retinal pigment epithelia (RPE) and retinal neurons (RN) arise from the same underlying precursor cell population. It is worthwhile to explore the transdifferentiation potential of RPE cells, given the benefits that could accrue from turning RPE into neural retina containing all its normal cellular subpopulations.
