Figure 8. Immunostaining for SQSTM1/p62 in human AMD samples.

Figure 8

The extent of cytoplasmic immunopositivity in the retinal pigment epithelial cells (RPE, shown by arrows) and in the drusen was evaluated microscopically (no staining or positive staining) by selecting 5 mm long areas of foveomacular (A), perimacular (B) and peripheral (C) regions. The drusen (shown by asterisks) were mostly SQSTM1/p62 negative. The nuclei of RPE cells were SQSTM1/p62 negative.
