Repository of proposed pathways and protein–protein interaction networks in age-related macular degeneration
Abstract Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is one of the commonest causes of sight loss in the elderly population and to date there is no intervention that slows or prevents early AMD disease progressing to blinding neovascularization or geographic atrophy. AMD is a complex disease and factors...

Abstract Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is one of the commonest causes of sight loss in the elderly population and to date there is no intervention that slows or prevents early AMD disease progressing to blinding neovascularization or geographic atrophy. AMD is a complex disease and factors proposed to contribute to the development and progression of disease include aging, genetics, epigenetics, oxidative stress, pro-inflammatory state, and life-style factors such as smoking, alcohol, and high fat diet. Here, we generate a knowledge repository of pathways and protein–protein interaction (PPI) networks likely to be implicated in AMD pathogenesis, such as complement activation, lipid trafficking and metabolism, vitamin A cycle, oxidative stress, proteostasis, bioenergetics, autophagy/mitophagy, extracellular matrix (ECM) turnover, and choroidal vascular dropout.
