Neuroprotective effect of the calcium channel blocker nilvadipine on retinal ganglion cell death in a mouse ocular hypertension model
We investigated whether nilvadipine has a neuroprotective effect on retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) in a mouse model of ocular hypertension (OH) that expresses cyan fluorescein protein (CFP) in RGCs. OH was induced in the right eyes of Thy1-CFP transgenic mice using a laser. Nilvadipine or vehicle tre...
