(+)-Pentazocine Reduces NMDA-Induced Murine Retinal Ganglion Cell Death Through a σR1-Dependent Mechanism

PURPOSE: To evaluate, in vivo, the effects of the sigma-1 receptor (σR1) agonist, (+)-pentazocine, on N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-mediated retinal excitotoxicity. METHODS: Intravitreal NMDA injections were performed in C57BL/6J mice (wild type [WT]) and σR1(−/−) (σR1 knockout [KO]) mice. Fellow eyes...
