Amyloid-β-induced pyroptosis drives retinal neurodegeneration in a TgAPPswePS1 mouse model
Aβ accumulation in RGCs is associated with retinal degeneration and activation of the pyroptosis pathway in aged TgAPPswePS1 mice. This study provides new insights into the inflammatory mechanisms underlying Aβ-related retinal neurodegeneration and suggests that targeting pyroptosis may represent a promising therapeutic strategy for retinal disorders linked to amyloid pathology.
