High Pressure-Induced mtDNA Alterations in Retinal Ganglion Cells and Subsequent Apoptosis

Purpose: Our previous study indicated that mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) damage and mutations are crucial to the progressive loss of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) in a glaucomatous rat model. In this study, we examined whether high pressure could directly cause mtDNA alterations and whether the latter c...
