Abstract:
Objectives: To assess the association between optic nerve double inversion recovery (DIR) hypersignal length and retinal axonal loss in neuroinflammatory diseases affecting optic nerves. Methods: We recruited patients previously affected (> 6 months) by a clinical episode of optic neuritis (ON). We had 25 multiple sclerosis (MS) patients, eight neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) patients and two patients suffering from idiopathic caused ON undergo brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI); including a 3-dimensional (3D) DIR sequence, optical coherence tomography (OCT) examination a

Abstract:
Glaucoma is a chronic, progressive disease characterized by typical optic nerve head changes and visual field defects. These alterations are caused by an intraocular pressure (IOP) being too high for the wellbeing of the specific optic disc. Typical clinical findings in glaucoma patients include thinning of the optic disc rim (Fig. 1), loss of retinal nerve fibers in the inferior sector with subsequent visual field defects in the superior sector.

In this study we measured with a highly sensitive two-site immunoenzymatic assay the levels of nerve growth factor (NGF) in human optic nerve affected by multiple sclerosis (MS). The result of this study showed an elevated increase of NGF in the MS optic nerves, as compared to the level of NGF found in the optic nerves non-affected by this demyelinating disorder. Moreover, the results showed that the optic nerves also expressed trkA NGF receptor and NGFmRNA, most likely by oligodendrocytes, implying that NGF is locally produced and suggesting that the presence of NGF might be regulated by an a

However the diagnosis of idiopathic intracranial hypertension was excluded in our patient because of the absence of other signs such as papilledema (universally present in the cases of idiopathic intracranial hypertension), visual loss, headache and flattening of the posterior sclera.

Optic nerve damage is a common cause of blindness. Optic nerve injury is often accompanied by fundus vascular disease, retinal ganglion cell apoptosis, and changes in retinal thickness. These changes can cause alterations in protein expression within neurons in the retina. Proteomics analysis offers conclusive evidence to decode a biological system. Furthermore, animal models of optic nerve injury made it possible to gain insight into pathological mechanisms, therapeutic targets, and effective treatment of such injuries.

Optic nerve disorders encompass a wide spectrum of conditions characterized by the loss of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and subsequent degeneration of the optic nerve. The etiology of these disorders can vary significantly, but emerging research highlights the crucial role of oxidative stress, an imbalance in the redox status characterized by an excess of reactive oxygen species (ROS), in driving cell death through apoptosis, autophagy, and inflammation.

Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness throughout the world and is estimated to affect 80 million by 2020. This disease causes progressive loss of vision and, left untreated, can lead to complete blindness. With treatment, however, disease progression can be slowed dramatically. This makes early detection and intervention crucial in preserving the vision of affected individuals. Onset and progression of glaucoma are associated with structural changes to an anatomical feature known as the optic nerve head (ONH).

Glaucoma is the second most common cause of blindness worldwide, and elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) is the primary risk factor for developing this disease.

To better evaluate this theory it is important to understand the biomechanical environment within the ONH. Unfortunately it is very difficult to make measurements in the ONH, and it is particularly difficult to access the region in the ONH where the ganglion
