Systems Genetics of Optic Nerve Axon Necrosis During Glaucoma
27 Feb 2020
Abstract excerpt
In this study we identify genomic regions that modulate the number of necrotic axons in optic nerves of a family of mice, some of which have severe glaucoma, and define a set of high priority positional candidate genes that modulate retinal ganglion cell (RGC) axonal degeneration. A large cohort of the BXD family were aged to greater than 13 months-of-age. Optic nerves from 75 strains and the DBA/2J (D2) parent...
