Several NTFs have been reported to be associated with glaucoma, including nerve growth factor (NGF), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF), fibroblast growth factor 2 (bFGF), glial-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), and neurturin [17,18,19,20,21]. Here, CNTF is linked to glaucoma.
