2 Figure 1 VPR Is a Disease that Develops as a Result of a Tear in the Retina Vitreous humor leaking into the retinal hole contains cytokines that activate the RPE. As a result, RPE cells proliferate and migrate out into the vitreous compartment to form a fibrotic scar (image courtesy of Dr. Philip J. Luthert, UCL). The findings from Salero, Blenkinsop and colleagues suggest that the RPESC population could be the cell of origin for VPR. Cell Stem Cell  , 1-2DOI: ( /j.stem ) Copyright © 2012 Elsevier Inc.
