The molecular mechanisms underlying retinal ganglion cell apoptosis and optic nerve regeneration in glaucoma (Review)
13 Feb 2025
Abstract excerpt
Glaucoma is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive and irreversible necrosis and apoptosis of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). Deformation of the lamina cribrosa (LC) has been identified as a factor leading to damage to the optic nerve and capillaries passing through the LC, ultimately causing visual field defects and glaucoma development. Recent advancements in molecular biology, both...
