Model: Acute retinal ganglion cell injury in the eye plus a chronic model of glaucoma; severity parameters not stated in the retrieved text

Retinal astrocyte conditioned medium contained a secreted neuroprotective signal identified by metabolomics as a lipid rather than a peptide neurotrophic factor, specifically lipoxins A4 and B4, which are synthesised in the inner retina and fall after injury. Injection of either lipoxin was suffici…
