Hyperoside (quercetin-3-O-β-D-galactopyranoside) protects A2E-laden retinal pigmented epithelium cells against UVA and blue light-induced apoptosis in vitro and in vivo
Age-related macular degeneration is associated with the degeneration of photoreceptors and retinal pigmented epithelial (RPE) cells in the macular. We, previously, demonstrated the protective effect of hyperoside on RPE cell death. In this study, hyperoside inhibited A2E accumulation and UVA and blu...
