Retinal microglia: just bystander or target for therapy?
Resident microglial cells can be regarded as the immunological watchdogs of the brain and
the retina. They are active sensors of their neuronal microenvironment and rapidly respond …

Axons of retinal ganglion cells are insulted in the optic nerve early in DBA/2J glaucoma
Here, we use a mouse model (DBA/2J) to readdress the location of insult (s) to retinal
