Summary
The paper discusses the role of exosomes in transcellular proteostasis and age-related macular degeneration, suggesting that exosomes may help in the clearance of harmful photoreceptor outer segment material that retinal pigment epithelium cells cannot degrade.
Categories
Eye health: The paper discusses age-related macular degeneration, a common cause of blindness, and the role of exosomes in this disease.
Aging: The paper explores the role of aging in the development of age-related macular degeneration and the decline of proteostasis.
Cognitive function and memory: The paper indirectly discusses cognitive function and memory by exploring age-related macular degeneration, which can impact visual information processing.
