Adenosine A(2A)R blockade prevents neuroinflammation-induced death of retinal ganglion cells caused by elevated pressure

BACKGROUND: Elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) is a major risk factor for glaucoma, a degenerative disease characterized by the loss of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). There is clinical and experimental evidence that neuroinflammation is involved in the pathogenesis of glaucoma. Since the blockade o...
