STUDY OF THE CYCLE OF NEUROTOXIC TRANSMITTER - GLUTAMATE IN THE RETINA IN EXPERIMENTAL GLAUCOMA

Serdyuk V. N.

Dnepropetrovsk, Ukraine

The work was made on the rabbits with modeled glaucoma. There were determined the level of glutamate and glutamine, the activity of the enzymes of glutamine synthetase, glutamatoxidase and glutaminase in the retinal tis¬sues and optical nerve in the dynamics of development of the glaucoma process. The results obtained are evidence of the increase in the content of glutamate and activity of the enzyme glutaminase.
