Nutrient Supplementation with n3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids, Lutein, and Zeaxanthin Decrease A2E Accumulation and VEGF Expression in the Retinas of Ccl2/Cx3cr1-Deficient Mice on Crb1 Background1–3

The Age-Related Eye Diseases Study 2 (AREDS2) clinical trial is assessing the effects of higher dietary xanthophyll (lutein and zeaxanthin) and long-chain n3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (LCPUFA) docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) intake on progression to advanced age-related macular degeneration (AMD). This study's purpose was to examine the retinal effects of the AREDS2 formulation on Chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 2...
