The review describes selective and secretory autophagy as being involved in drusen biogenesis, senescence-associated secretory phenotype, inflammation, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition in age-related macular degeneration.
Macroautophagy/autophagy is an emerging factor in age-related macular degeneration pathology.
The review centers on selective autophagy receptors and neurodegeneration-linked receptors including SQSTM1/p62 and OPTN.
