Glycosaminoglycans of the trabecular meshwork of the eye in primary juvenile glaucoma.

摘要

Significant changes in the qualitative and quantitative composition of glycosaminoglycans (decreased content of sulfated glycosaminoglycans and increased content of collagen-bound proteoglycanes) in the trabecular meshwork of the eye in primary juvenile glaucoma indicate fibrosis of the juxtacanalicular tissue, which was detected in pathomorphological examination of the operation material.
