Mitophagy initiates retrograde mitochondrial-nuclear signaling to guide retinal pigment cell heterogeneity
3 Aug 2022
Abstract excerpt
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the leading cause of blindness among the elderly, is without treatment for early disease. Degenerative retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cell heterogeneity is a well-recognized but understudied pathogenic factor. Due to the daily phagocytosis of photoreceptor outer segments, unique photo-oxidative stress, and high metabolism for maintaining vision, the RPE has robust...
