Protective effect of zinc against A2E-induced toxicity in ARPE-19 cells: Possible involvement of lysosomal acidification
A key pathogenic mechanism of dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is lysosomal dysfunction in retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells, which results in the accumulation of lipofuscins such as A2E (N-retinylidene-N-retinylethanolamine) that further compromises lysosomal function. This vicious c...
