Products of Docosahexaenoate Oxidation as Contributors to Photosensitising Properties of Retinal Lipofuscin
Retinal lipofuscin which accumulates with age in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is subjected to daily exposures to high fluxes of visible light and exhibits potent photosensitising properties; however, the molecules responsible for its photoreactivity remain unknown. Here, we demonstrate that...
