Purpose: To examine the effect of intraocularly produced glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) on the survival rate of retinal ganglion cells in the optic nerve crush model.
Methods : Forty-one Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into a study group (21 animals) in which 4 beads with 3000 genetically modified cells to produce GLP-1 were intravitreally implanted into the right eye; a saline control group (n=12) with intravitreal saline injection into the right eye; and a GLP-1 negative bead control group (n=8) in which 4 beads with 3000 cells without GLP-1 production were intravitreally implanted into the right eye. The right optic nerves of all animals were crushed in a standardized manner. After labeling the retinal ganglion cells by injecting 3% fluorogold into the superior colliculus, the animals were sacrificed, and the ganglion cells were counted on retinal flat mounts.
