Transneuronal Degeneration in the Brain During Glaucoma

Transneuronal Degeneration in the Brain During Glaucoma

The death of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) is a key factor in the pathophysiology of all types of glaucoma, but the mechanism of pathogenesis of glaucoma remains unclear. RGCs are a group of central nervous system (CNS) neurons whose soma are in the inner retina. The axons of RGCs form the optic ner...
