Establishing a human cell-based model system for macular degeneration

2019-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the most common cause of visual loss amongst the elderly in developed countries. AMD is a complex disease with a highly variable phenotype, which makes generating reliable disease models difficult. In addition, lack of knowledge of the underlying pathological mechanisms makes development of an effective treatment difficult. To address the lack of knowledge of the molecular...
