Interaction of A2E with Model Membranes. Implications to the Pathogenesis of Age-related Macular Degeneration
Deposition of a fluorophoric material, known as lipofuscin, in retinal pigment epithelium cells has been speculated to be one of the biomarkers of age-related macular degeneration. One of the fluorophores of lipofuscin has been characterized as A2E, a pyridinium bisretinoid. Its cationic nature alon...
