Development of techniques for analysis of the human retinal ganglion cell transcriptome : application to the role of calcium in RGC death in glaucoma

Purpose: Irreversible retinal ganglion cell (RGC) death is the reason for visual loss in glaucoma. However, the mechanisms of RGC death remain unclear. The aim of this research was to develop methods to study mRNA expression profiles in human RGCs, then to use the data to investigate the role of cal...
