Glaucoma, a leading cause of blindness, is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive loss of retinal ganglion cell axons in the optic nerve and their cell bodies in the retina. Reactive retinal glial changes have been observed in glaucoma but the role of such glial changes in the pathogenesis of the condition remains unclear. In the present study we found that retinal ganglion cells in an experimental animal model of glaucoma have an increased axon regenerative potential. Regeneration of adult rat retinal ganglion cell axons after optic nerve crush was significantly increased in vivo when combined with intraocular pressure-induced experimental glaucoma. This enhanced axon regeneration response was correlated with a significant increase in activation of glial fibrillary acidic protein+retinal glia. Using a dissociated retinal ganglion cell culture model we showed that reducing the number of activated retinal glia with a glial specific toxin, α-Aminoadipic acid, significantly reduced the growth potential of retinal ganglion cells from glaucomatous rat eyes, suggesting that activated retinal glia mediate, at least in part, the growth promoting effect. This was shown to be mediated by both membrane-bound and soluble glial-derived factors. Neurotrophin and ciliary neurotrophic/leukemia inhibitory factor blockers did not affect the regenerative potential, excluding these growth factors as principal mediators of the enhanced growth response occurring in glaucomatous retinal cultures. These observations are the first to reveal that retinal ganglion cells from glaucomatous rat eyes have an enhanced regenerative capacity. Furthermore, our results suggest that activated retinal glia mediate at least part of this response. Further work to understand and enhance the regeneration-promoting effect of activated retinal glia is required to determine if this approach could be useful as part of a therapeutic strategy to encourage optic nerve regeneration in glaucoma.

Long-term pharmacological management of glaucoma currently relies on self-administered drugs to regulate intraocular pressure (IOP). A number of approaches using stem cells have recently shown promise as potential future treatment strategies complementary to IOP lowering. Several sources of endogenous stem cells have been identified in the eye, some of which may be able to repair the damaged trabecular meshwork and restore functional regulation of aqueous outflow. Neural and mesenchymal stem cells secrete growth factors which provide neuroprotective effects, reducing loss of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) in animal models. In the future, stem cells may even replace RGCs to reform functional connections between the eye and the brain, although the complexity of such a repair task is formidable. With advances in biomaterial cell scaffolds and concurrent efforts in other neural systems, stem cell therapies are becoming a realistic option for treating multiple eye diseases, and despite ongoing challenges, there are reasons for optimism that stem cells may play a role in the treatment of human glaucoma in the future.

Stem cell transplantation is currently being explored as a therapy for many neurodegenerative diseases including glaucoma. Cellular therapies have the potential to provide chronic neuroprotection after a single treatment, and early results have been encouraging in models of spinal cord injury and Parkinson's disease. Stem cells may prove ideal for use in such treatments as they can accumulate at sites of injury in the central nervous system (CNS) and may also offer the possibility of targeted treatment delivery. Numerous stem cell sources exist, with embryonic and fetal stem cells liable to be superseded by adult-derived cells as techniques to modify the potency and differentiation of somatic cells improve. Possible neuroprotective mechanisms offered by stem cell transplantation include the supply of neurotrophic factors and the modulation of matrix metalloproteinases and other components of the CNS environment to facilitate endogenous repair. Though formidable challenges remain, stem cell transplantation remains a promising therapeutic approach in glaucoma. In addition, such studies may also provide important insights relevant to other neurodegenerative diseases.
