PEDF Deletion Induces Senescence and Defects in Phagocytosis in the RPE

The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) expresses the <i>Serpinf1</i> gene to produce pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF), a retinoprotective protein that is downregulated with cell senescence, aging and retinal degenerations. We determined the expression of senescence-associated genes...
