Functional and molecular profiles of the neuroretina and retinal pigmented epithelium-choroid in response to aging and Nrf2 deletion
Purpose: Age is the leading factor for age-related macular degeneration (AMD), in which retinal pigmented epithelium (RPE) atrophy is a hallmark. The nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), a major anti-stress transcription factor, decreases in AMD, suggesting bioenergetic stress interacts with age during AMD pathogenesis. We profiled visual function and gene expression of the retina…
