Pharmaceutical Induction of PGC-1α Promotes Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cell Metabolism and Protects against Oxidative Damage

Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) dysfunction due to accumulation of reactive oxygen species and oxidative damage is a key event in the development of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Here, we examine the therapeutic potential of ZLN005, a selective PGC-1α transcriptional regulator, in protect...
