| Collection Summary: | Donor tissues were used following the institutional review board approved protocols and adhering to the tenets of the Declaration of Helsinki. Control TM and a subset of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) TM were collected from cadaver donors, a limited subset of POAG surgical specimen (acquired under institutional review board approved/exempted protocols) also were used for these studies. Cadaver donor tissues were sourced from Midwest Eye-Banks, Lions Eye Bank (Miami, FL), National Disease Research Interchange (NDRI; Philadelphia, PA), and Mundorf Eye Institute (Charlotte, NC). The postmortem time ranged from 3 to 16 hours. Control TM was stored briefly in Optisol at 48 and then used for lipid extraction. POAG TM tissues were stored at -80˚C until time of use. The mean age of control donors was 58.2 +/- 13.7 years and the mean age of glaucomatous TM donors 66 +/- 9.5 years. |
