Potential of mesenchymal stem cells and nanoparticles in the treatment of retinal disorders
 Kettner, Ondřej ; Heřmánková, Barbora (advisor) ; Filová, Eva (referee)
Retinal degenerative diseases are recognized worldwide as one of the predominant causes underlying irreversible visual impairment and even blindness. The current standard treatment has helped in both the prevention and supportive treatment of several pathologies, especially if they relate to the retina. However, many of these methods are rather invasive in terms of procedure with the subsequent possibility of infection, inflammation or even retinal detachment with the potential risk of vision loss. These restrictions represent a significant cost to patients' quality of life and also have an economic impact on the healthcare system, so new treatment options are being sought. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a promising cell therapy tool for the treatment of many previously untreatable defects and diseases. In addition to MSCs, the use of nanoparticles and nanofibrous carriers is currently being studied in the diagnosis and therapy of retinal diseases. Combining the immunomodulatory and regenerative properties of MSCs and nanotechnologies offers a promising therapeutic strategy for a number of diseases. This thesis is therefore devoted to the current state of the use of nanomaterials, MSCs and their combination that may provide new opportunities in the treatment of retinal degenerative diseases.
