The retina, as part of the central nervous system is an ideal model to study the response of
neurons to injury and disease and to test new treatments. During the last decade is …

In this study, we report that partial unilateral optic nerve crush in the rat affects the number of
retinal ganglion cells of the contralateral eye still in continuity with the ipsilateral superior …

This study was undertaken to examine whether unilateral injury to one optic nerve (ON)
elicits a response in the microglia, neuroglia and ganglion cells of the retina and ON of the …

For years it has been known that unilateral optic nerve lesions induce a bilateral response
that causes an inflammatory and microglial response in the contralateral un-injured retinas …

The post‐injury responses of retinal ganglion cells elicit a number of glial reactions which
have not been completely understood. The bilateral pattern of non‐neuronal retinal cell …

Abstract Iron wires (0.3 mm in diameter and 1.2 mm in length) were lodged in the left eyes of
albino mice. 4 weeks after the experiment, the left and right eyes were sectioned and …

Evidence has accumulated that damaged neural cells may not inevitably degenerate, and
that in vivo cells which are not directly injured by an insult may be adversely affected by …

Background: To analyze the course of microglial and macroglial activation in injured and
contralateral retinas after unilateral optic nerve crush (ONC). Methods: The left optic nerve of …

After the unilateral inflammation or nerve lesion of the ocular surface, the ipsilateral corneal
sensory nerve activity is activated and sensitized, evoking ocular discomfort, irritation, and …

The present study demonstrates alterations of the contralateral side optic tract to an optic
nerve traumatic lesion. Visual acuity of the right eye following Traumatic optic neuropathy …
