ANTIAPOPTOTIC EFFECT OF TAURINE AGAINST NMDA-INDUCED RETINAL EXCITOTOXICITY IN RATS
Objective: N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) excitotoxicity has been proposed to mediate apoptosis of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) in glaucoma. Taurine (TAU) has been shown to have neuroprotective properties, thus we examined anti-apoptotic effect of TAU against retinal damag...
