Retinal genes are differentially expressed in areas of primary versus secondary degeneration following partial optic nerve injury
Background: Partial transection (PT) of the optic nerve is an established experimental model of secondary degeneration in the central nervous system. After a dorsal transection, retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) with axons in ventral optic nerve are intact but vulnerable to secondary degeneration, where...
