AMP-activated-protein kinase (AMPK) is an essential sensor and metabolic regulator of retinal neurons and their integrated metabolism with RPE

2020-05-25

Abstract excerpt

The retina has one of the highest energy demands in the human body, and proper regulation of metabolism among the cell types of the retina is required for functional vision. Recent studies have reported that retinal metabolism is disrupted during retinal degeneration and aging, while therapies designed to enhance metabolism can slow or prevent degeneration. Here, we show that multiple metabolic pathways, including...
