| Description |
There is compelling evidence from animal models of glaucoma and acute retinal ischemia that ?2 agonists protect retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) from injury. However, the mechanism of action is not well understood. We explored the role of the ?2 adrenergic system in modulation of intracellular Ca++ signaling at the IPL where communication between RGCs and their presynaptic cells takes place. |
