| Title: | The effects of corticosteroid drugs on the visual function of zebrafish | Authors: | Reynolds, Alison; Lau E How, Kelvin | Permanent link: | http://hdl.handle.net/10197/12595 | Date: | 1-Apr-2018 | Online since: | 2021-11-09T12:57:28Z | Abstract: | Introduction: Glaucoma, a leading cause of blindness, is a heterogenous eye condition characterized by gradual loss of visual acuity due to degeneration of retinal ganglion cells (1). Glaucoma is an off-target effect of corticosteroids when administered intraocularly for treatment of some ocular indications (2). This study uses zebrafish to study whether a glaucoma-type disease is induced by treatment with corticosteroids by assessing the effects on retinal histology and visual function. | Type of material: | Conference Publication | Publisher: | British Pharmacological Society | Journal: | pA2 Online | Volume: | 18 | Issue: | 1 | Start page: | 167P | End page: | 167P | Keywords: | Glaucoma; Corticosteroids; Visual behaviour | Other versions: | http://www.pa2online.org/abstract/abstract.jsp?abid=33565 https://www.bps.ac.uk/publishing/blog/april-2017/meetings-update |
