Paper Abstract
Thresholds for photochemical damage were performed in RPE cell lines (artificially pigmented) taken from either human (hTERT-RPE1), wild type (wt) mouse, or transgenic mice deficient (+/-) in either superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) or SOD2. The four cell lines were characterized by immunohistochemical and immunoblot analyses to
determine relative abundance of the SOD proteins. There was no difference in sensitivity between the human, murine wt and murine SOD1-deficient cells, whereas there was a dramatic (2 fold) increase in threshold irradiance value for the murine SOD2-deficient cells. Possible explanations for the unexpected result are provided.
