Global Gene Expression Changes in Rat Retinal Ganglion Cells in Experimental Glaucoma
25 Mar 2010
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Intraocular pressure (IOP) is an important risk factor in glaucoma. Gene expression changes were studied in glaucomatous rat retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) to elucidate altered transcriptional pathways. METHODS: RGCs were back-labeled with Fluorogold. Unilateral IOP elevation was produced by injection of hypertonic saline into the episcleral veins. Laser capture microdissection (LCM) was used to capture...
