Axonal Transport in the Rat Optic Nerve Following Short-Term Reduction in Cerebrospinal Fluid Pressure or Elevation in Intraocular Pressure

Abstract

Both short-term lowering of CSFP and short-term rise in IOP were associated with a disturbance of both the orthograde and retrograde axonal transport. The findings support the notion of an association between abnormally low CSFP and optic nerve damage.
