LAMP1 and glaucoma: We further explore the therapeutic potential of enhancing autophagy to improve mitochondrial turnover, mitigate RGC loss, and preserve visual function.<h4>Methods</h4>Glucocorticoid (GC)-induced and myocilin (MYOC)-associated glaucoma mouse models were used to assess the expression of mitochondrial markers (TOM20/COX IV), oxidative DNA damage (8-OHdG), and mitophagy/autophagy-related proteins (p62, LC3, Phospho-ubiquitin (Ser65), and LAMP1) in retinal tissues.
