Lutein and Zeaxanthin Isomers Reduce Photoreceptor Degeneration in the Pde6brd10 Mouse Model of Retinitis Pigmentosa
Purpose. Lutein, RR-zeaxanthin, and RS-zeaxanthin (L-Z) are antioxidants which can reduce endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) and oxidative stress (OS), and ameliorate neurodegenerative diseases. However, their treatment effect in the Pde6brd10 (rd10) mouse model of retinitis pigmentosa (RP) and the...
