Müller cells (MCs) (retinal gliocytes, Müller glia) are the most common of the 3 glial cells found in the human retina, followed by astroglia and microglia. MCs have been shown to originate from neural crest cells. MCs cover the entire thickness of the retina and have interactions with every type of neuronal cell body. They form architectural support structures stretching radially across the thickness of the retina and are the limits of the retina at the outer and inner limiting membrane, respectively. Muller cells contain glycogen, mitochondria, and intermediate filaments that are immunoreactive for vimentin and to some extent to glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP).
Why choose Human Retinal Muller Cells from AcceGen?
These cells are freshly isolated and cryopreserved at early passage, ensuring excellent viability and consistent morphology when revived. With rigorous quality control protocols, AcceGen guarantees that each batch is mycoplasma-free, delivering pure and reliable cells for research, making them ideal for producing accurate and reproducible experimental outcomes.
