Genes expressed in the human trabecular meshwork during pressure‐induced homeostatic response
29 Jan 2004
Abstract excerpt
Physiological pressure inside the eye is maintained by a resistance mechanism provided by the trabecular meshwork tissue. In most cases, prolonged, elevated pressure leads to an eye pathology characterized by retinal ganglion cell (RGC) degeneration, optic nerve damage, and non-remedial blindness. We are investigating the regulation of trabecular meshwork genes in response to elevated pressure. Using perfused...
