Fine Tuning of an Oxidative Stress Model with Sodium Iodate Revealed Protective Effect of NF-κB Inhibition and Sex-Specific Difference in Susceptibility of the Retinal Pigment Epithelium
Oxidative stress of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is a major risk factor for age-related macular degeneration (AMD). As a dry AMD model via oxidative stress, sodium iodate (NaIO<sub>3</sub>), which is primarily toxic to the RPE, has often been used at a high dose to cause RPE deat...
