Following optic nerve transection, most of the retinal ganglion cells die. Their debris is promptly cleared by phagocytic cells. It is currently not known to what extent peripherally derived macrophages contribute to this activity. Using antibodies OX42 and ED-1, phagocytic cells were labeled in the

## Abstract Optic nerve regeneration within the reptiles is variable. In a snake, __Viper aspis__, and the lizard __Gallotia galloti__, regeneration is slow, although some retinal ganglion cell (RGC) axons eventually reach the visual centers (Rio et al. [1989] Brain Res 479:151β156; Lang et al. [19
## Abstract In this study, we examined the effects of mechanical stress induced by elevated hydrostatic pressure (HP) on the migration of human optic nerve head (ONH) astrocytes, using an in vitro model that follows repopulation of a cellβfree area (CFA) created on a monolayer of cultured astrocyte
## Abstract CNS injury is often localized but can be followed by more widespread secondary degenerative events that usually result in greater functional loss. Using a partial transection model in rat optic nerve (ON). we recently demonstrated in vivo increases in the oxidative stressβassociated enz
