Description Traumatic brain injuries (TBI) comprise 1/3rd of all injury related deaths in the United States, with traumatic axonal injury (TAI) as one of the most devastating underlying pathologies. Traumatic optic neuropathy (TON) is a type of TAI that occurs with high incidence after TBI and can result in irreversible visual dysfunction. TON involves both oxidative and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress that is more severe in adolescent mice.1, 2 While secondary mechanisms of distal axon injury and somal responses are well studied (e.g., Wallerian degeneration3, 4), little is known about signaling between the axonal injury site and the soma.5 We hypothesize is that ER and OxStress influence each other in a reciprocal relationship that is unique to the proximal axon vs. the soma.
