ATF3 upregulation in glia during Wallerian degeneration: differential expression in peripheral nerves and CNS white matter [PDF]
Background: Many changes in gene expression occur in distal stumps of injured nerves but the transcriptional control of these events is poorly understood.

Optic nerve as a source of activated retinal microglia post-injury
Using mice expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP) from a transgenic CD11c promoter we found that a controlled optic nerve crush (ONC) injury attracted GFPhi retinal myeloid cells to the dying retinal ganglion cells and their axons.

Molecular mechanisms separating two axonal pathways during embryonic development of the avian optic tectum [PDF]
During embryonic development of the avian optic tectum, retinal and tectobulbar axons form an orthogonal array of nerve processes. Growing axons of both tracts are transiently very closely apposed to each other. Despite this spatial proximity, axons from

Development of a novel SupraChoroidal-to-Optic-NervE (SCONE) drug delivery system
Purpose Targeted drug delivery to the optic nerve head may be useful in the preclinical study and later clinical management of optic neuropathies, however, there are no FDA-approved drug delivery systems to achieve this.

Approach to the Diagnosis and Differentiation of Glaucomatous and Nonglaucomatous Optic Neuropathies
Optic neuropathy denotes degeneration of the retinal ganglion cells with functional and structural impairment of the optic nerve. Functional damage of the optic nerve can be evaluated by checking visual acuity, color vision, pupillary function, and ...

Echographic Optic Nerve Evaluation: A Novel Diagnostic Modality in Glaucoma [PDF]
Introduction: Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma (POAG) is considered a leading cause of blindness among all others. Different technologies such as Scanning Laser Polarimetry (SLP) and Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) closely correlate in measuring structural

The Morphological Description Automation of the Optic Nerve Head Boundary in Digital Fundus Images
Purpose. To develop the automating method for the description of the optic nerve head condition. The method allows to differentiate the optic nerve head with clear boundaries typical for the normal fundus and optic nerve head with blurred boundaries ...
