Changes in cholinergic amacrine cells after rodent anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (rAION).
PURPOSE Displaced cholinergic amacrine cell neurons comprise a significant fraction of the retinal ganglion cell (RGC) layer. Rodent anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (rAION) is an optic nerve infarct, which results in RGC loss in mice. The goal was to determine whether rAION produces changes in amacrine cell neurons. METHODS rAION was generated in transgenic mice carrying a cyan fluorescent...
متن کاملRodent anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (rAION) induces regional retinal ganglion cell apoptosis with a unique temporal pattern.
PURPOSE Nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) results in optic nerve damage with retinal ganglion cell (RGC) loss. An NAION model, rodent anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (rAION), was used to determine AION-associated mechanisms of RGC death and associated regional retinal changes. METHODS rAION was induced in male Wistar rats, and the retinas analyzed at various times aft...
متن کاملDendrimers Target the Ischemic Lesion in Rodent and Primate Models of Nonarteritic Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy.
INTRODUCTION Polyamidoamine dendrimer nanoparticles (~ 4 nanometers) are inert polymers that can be linked to biologically active compounds. These dendrimers selectively target and accumulate in inflammatory cells upon systemic administration. Dendrimer-linked compounds enable sustained release of therapeutic compounds directly at the site of damage. The purpose of this study was to determine i...
متن کاملBilateral anterior ischemic optic neuropathy after bilateral neck dissection
PURPOSE The risk of visual loss after nonocular surgeries is very low, between 0.2% and 4.5%. According to the American Society of Anesthesiologists, ischemic optic neuropathy has been reported mostly after spinal surgery (54.2%), followed by cardiac surgery and radical neck dissection (13.3%). It may occur in association with some conditions that include systemic hypotension, acute blood loss ...
متن کاملNonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy after uneventful phacoemulsification: case report.
To report a case of nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) after uneventful cataract extraction and intraocular lens implantation. Prospective, observational case report and literature review. We report the case history of a 74-year-old woman who underwent phacoemulsification and developed sudden loss of vision on the 13th postoperative day. After complete ocular and systemic e...
