Aldose reductase inhibition decelerates optic nerve degeneration by alleviating retinal microglia activation
Abstract As part of the central nervous system (CNS), retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and their axons are the only neurons in the retina that transmit visual signals from the eye to the brain via the optic nerve (ON). Unfortunately, they do not regenerate upon injury in mammals. In ON trauma, retinal...
