Brimonidine is neuroprotective against glutamate-induced neurotoxicity, oxidative stress, and hypoxia in purified rat retinal ganglion cells

PURPOSE: To investigate the neuroprotective effect of α2-adrenergic agonist brimonidine in the presence of glutamate-induced neurotoxicity, oxidative stress, and hypoxia on in vitro cultures of purified rat retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). METHODS: Purified RGC cultures were obtained from retinas of 6...
