Produktbeschreibung

This second edition volume expands on the previous edition with an update on the latest methodologies used to study the neurodegeneration of glaucoma. This book notably features a focus on ocular hypertension as an important factor in the pathogenesis of glaucoma, and the relationship between elevated intraocular pressure and neurodegeneration. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Cutting-edge and authoritative, Glaucoma: Methods and Protocols, Second Edition is a valuable resource for anyone interested in glaucoma research. This book will encourage innovation and facilitate progress toward improving our understanding and treatment of glaucoma.
