Glucocorticoid (GC)-induced ocular hypertension and secondary iatrogenic open-angle
glaucoma are serious side effects of GC therapy. Its clinical presentation is similar in many ways …

Cultured trabecular meshwork (TM) cells are a valuable model system to study the cellular
mechanisms involved in the regulation of conventional outflow resistance and thus intraocular …

With the combined purpose of facilitating useful vision over a lifetime, a number of ocular
cells have evolved specialized features not found elsewhere in the body. The trabecular …

Twenty five years have elapsed since the original publication of Helium Cryogenics. During
this time, a considerable amount of research and development involving helium fluids has …

Glaucoma is a major cause of blindness and is characterized by progressive degeneration
of the optic nerve and is usually associated with elevated intraocular pressure. Analyses of …

The aim of this volume is to establish a firm basis for the understanding of materials behavior
and property measurement to use for design and materials selection at low temperatures. …

Glaucoma is one of the most common neurodegenerative diseases. Despite this, the earliest
stages of this complex disease are still unclear. This study was specifically designed to …

The glaucomas are neurodegenerative diseases involving death of retinal ganglion cells
and optic nerve head excavation. A major risk factor for this neurodegeneration is a harmfully …

The purpose of the present study was to establish a rat retinal ganglion cell line by transformation
of rat retinal cells. For this investigation, retinal cells were isolated from postnatal day 1 …

PURPOSE: To determine the effects of glucocorticoid treatment on the microfilament
structure of cultured human trabecular meshwork cells. Topical or systemic administration of …
