Molecular profiling implicates immune-driven adaptive homeostasis in maintaining intraocular pressure with age

Aging and ocular hypertension are primary risk factors for glaucoma - a major cause of blindness worldwide. Ocular hypertension results from dysfunction in the outflow tissues - the trabecular meshwork (TM) and Schlemm's canal (SC), which are key regulators of intraocular pressure (IOP) homeostasis. Despite lifelong multifaceted stress to the outflow pathway, ocular hypertension sufficient to…
