In order to study this important isomerization/hydrolysis step, we used a differential proteomics approach with bovine, murine and human retinal pigment epithelial cells to study the effects of the light and oxidative stress on RPE65 expression and RPE45, a caspase-mediated cleavage form of RPE65.

Methods This was a nationwide population-based cross-sectional study that included 17,676 subjects aged over 40 years who participated in the 2008-2012 Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Digital fundus images (45˚) were obtained for both eyes under physiologic mydriasis and were graded using the international classification and grading system for age-related macular degeneration. The spherical equivalents of refractive errors were calculated in diopters using auto-refraction data. Results After adjustment for potential confounders, myopia was associated with lower risk of any age-related macular degeneration [odds ratio (OR), 0.74; 95% Confidence Interval (CI), 0.61-0.91]. In particular, myopia was significantly associated with lower odds of age-related macular degeneration in female participants (any AMD: OR, 0.71; 95% CI, 0.54-0.93; early AMD: OR, 0.70; 95% CI, 0.53-0.93) and in participants younger than 50 years (any AMD: OR, 0.46; 95% CI, 0.24-0.90; early AMD: OR, 0.47; 95% CI, 0.24-0.93). There was no significant association between myopia and age-related macular degeneration in male participants and in participants older than 50 years.
