Oral Delivery of the P2Y(12) Receptor Antagonist Ticagrelor Prevents Loss of Photoreceptors in an ABCA4(−/−) Mouse Model of Retinal Degeneration

PURPOSE: Accumulation of lysosomal waste is linked to neurodegeneration in multiple diseases, and pharmacologic enhancement of lysosomal activity is hypothesized to reduce pathology. An excessive accumulation of lysosomal-associated lipofuscin waste and an elevated lysosomal pH occur in retinal pigm...
