Abstract

The major risk factor for primary open-angle glaucoma is increased intraocular pressure stemming from elevated outflow resistance in the trabecular meshwork (TM) region. Integrins play a pivotal role in the TM by influencing its biological properties and growth factor signaling. Pathologic changes in the TM are partially mediated by growth factors like connective tissue growth factor (CTGF). ...
