Impairment of neuronal glutamate uptake and modulation of the glutamate transporter GLT-1 induced by retinal ischemia.
Excitotoxicity has been implicated in the retinal neuronal loss in several ocular pathologies including glaucoma. Dysfunction of Excitatory Amino Acid Transporters is often a key component of the cascade leading to excitotoxic cell death. In the retina, glutamate transport is mainly operated by the...
