Inhibition of reactive gliosis attenuates excitotoxicity-mediated death of retinal ganglion cells.
Reactive gliosis is a hallmark of many retinal neurodegenerative conditions, including glaucoma. Although a majority of studies to date have concentrated on reactive gliosis in the optic nerve head, very few studies have been initiated to investigate the role of reactive gliosis in the retina. We ha...
