Acylcarnitine Abnormalities Implicate Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Patients With Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration
23 Jul 2020
Abstract excerpt
Purpose: Abnormalities in lipid metabolism are implicated in age-related macular degeneration (AMD), but the pathways involved remain unclear. We assessed whether acylcarnitine concentrations, a marker of lipid and mitochondrial metabolism, differed between patients with AMD and controls. Methods: In this cross-sectional case-control study, cases (n = 81) had neovascular AMD and controls (n = 79) had cataract...
