Abstract:
Objective To investigate the changes of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) exposed to hypoxia and the mechanism. Methods RGCs were isolated from the retina of neonatal Long Evans rats aged 1 day and cultured, then divided into normal control group and hypoxia group (cultured in incubator containing 1 O_2, 5 CO_2 and 94 N_2). At 1, 3, 12 and 24 h after incubation, the calcium ion level by laser scanning confocal fluorescence microimaging system, the activity of SOD and the content of MDA by biochemistry technology, TNF-? by ELISA were detected. Results No changes of calcium ion level in RGCs were observed in normal control group. The calcium ion level increased significantly in the hypoxia group (P
