Cerebrospinal fluid dynamics between the intracranial and the subarachnoid space of the optic nerve. Is it always bidirectional? [PDF]
CSF is thought to flow continuously from the site of production in the ventricles into interconnected spaces; i.e. cisterns and subarachnoid spaces (SASs).

Aneurysms of the intracranial segment of the ophthalmic artery trunk. case report and systematic literature review [PDF]
Aneurysms arising from the ophthalmic artery trunk (OAT) are very rare, particularly in the artery's intracranial course. The onset of a subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) from a ruptured OAT aneurysm in this segment is extremely rare.

Optic nerve hypoplasia (ONH) is a congenital anomaly of the optic disc that might result in moderate to severe vision loss in children. With a vast number of cases now being reported, the rarity of ONH is obviously now refuted. The major aspects of ophthalmic evaluation of an infant with possible ONH are visual assessment, fundus examination, and ...

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.

Correlation between ocular elasticity and intraocular pressure on optic nerve damages [PDF]
Optic neuropathy in glaucoma causes visual field loss and blindness [1]. The optic nerve damage in the lamina cribrosa (LC) of the sclera, the primary site of glaucoma, is correlated with the intraocular pressure (IOP) [2]. Literature shows that the

Whole tumor RNA-sequencing and deconvolution reveal a clinically-prognostic PTEN/PI3K-regulated glioma transcriptional signature [PDF]
The concept that solid tumors are maintained by a productive interplay between neoplastic and non-neoplastic elements has gained traction with the demonstration that stromal fibroblasts and immune system cells dictate cancer development and progression ...

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.

Vasculature of the distal part of optic nerve [PDF]
Background/Aim. Vascularisation of the distal, namely intracranial and intracanalicular parts of the optic nerve have not been explained in conventional textbooks of anatomy, while there have been explanations of proximal, that is intraorbital segment ...
