Photoreceptor-induced RPE phagolysosomal maturation defects in Stargardt-like Maculopathy (STGD3)

Abstract For many neurodegenerative disorders, expression of a pathological protein by one cell type impedes function of other cell types, which in turn contributes to the death of the first cell type. In transgenic mice modelling Stargardt-like (STGD3) maculopathy, human mutant ELOVL4 expression by...
