    Yaeram Jeong, Chung-ha O Davis ... Nicholas Marsh-Armstrong
    Increased transfer of axonal mitochondria to optic nerve astrocytes after expression of glaucoma-associated Optineurin variants suggest that increased transcellular degradation of axonal mitochondria may play a causative role in at least some forms of glaucoma.
