Local Accumulation of Axonal Mitochondria in the Optic Nerve Glial Lamina Precedes Myelination
Mitochondria are essential for neurons and must be optimally distributed along their axon to fulfill local functions. A high density of mitochondria has been observed in retinal ganglion cell (RGC) axons of an unmyelinated region of the optic nerve, called the glial lamina (GL) in mouse (lamina crib...
