Title	The Cell and Molecular Biology of Glaucoma: Common neurodegenerative pathways and relevance to glaucoma
Creator	Stuart J. McKinnon, MD PhD, Duke University Medical Center
Subject	Glaucoma; cellular pathologies; neurodegeneration; classifications of neurodegenerations; cellular aging; gene regulation
Description	Glaucoma is an age-related, chronic neurodegeneration of the optic nerve. The molecular and cellular pathologies that characterize glaucoma are shared by other chronic neurodegenerations such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Therapies directed at treating chronic neurodegenerations could potentially be used to treat glaucoma, and conversely therapies that are successful in treating glaucoma could be used to treat other chronic neurodegenerations.
