Increase in retinal ganglion cells’ susceptibility to elevated intraocular pressure and impairment of their endogenous neuroprotective mechanism by age

PURPOSE: To investigate age-associated changes in retinal ganglion cell (RGC) response to elevated intraocular pressure (IOP), and to explore the mechanism underlying these changes. Specifically, the effect of aging on inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) gene family expression was investigated in glaucomat...
