Overstaying their welcome: defective CX3CR1 microglia eyed in macular degeneration.

The Journal of clinical investigation - 1 Oct 2007

Chen Jing, Connor Kip M, Smith Lois E H

Abstract excerpt

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the most common cause of blindness in the elderly, is characterized by degeneration of the macula and can lead to loss of fine color vision. Alterations in inflammatory and immune system pathways, which arise from genetic differences, predispose individuals...
