In retina, excessive excitatory neurotransmission via <i>N</i>-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptors underlies neuronal apoptosis in conditions like glaucoma. However, it is not known if NMDA-mediated excitotoxicity alters retinal RAS expression. Hence, this study investigated the effect of NMDA exposure on the expression of RAS in rat retinas. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Two groups of Sprague-Dawley rats received either phosphate buffer saline or NMDA (160 nmol).

Systemic administration of antitumor necrosis factor-α and other biological DMARDs have been used for treating cases that responded inadequately to conventional treatments.
