Abstract
The study aims to validate mouse retinal explants for use as an efficient tool to investigate neuroprotective therapies for treatment in diseases such as glaucoma. Eyes from C57BL/6 mice were enucleated immediately post-mortem to make two retinal explants per eye. Explants were cultured at an air/medium interface on membrane inserts for 7 days ex-vivo. Explants were treated either with Z-VAD-FMK (a pan-caspase inhibitor; 100 μM) or vehicle....
