How can you use “ganglion” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness that involves loss of retinal ganglion cells and degeneration of the optic nerve [ 1 ] . Glaucoma is usually associated with high intraocular pressure (IOP) that results from an increased resistance to drainage of the ocular fluid [ 1 ] . Developmental disorders of the ocular anterior segment, including Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome, are often associated with elevated IOP and glaucoma [ 1 2 ] . The developmental sequence and structure of the human and mouse ocular drainage structures are similar [ 3 ] , and the same genes are known to cause anterior segment dysgenesis (ASD) in humans and mice.
In the retina, the visual information is transmitted vertically by glutamate containing cells, photoreceptors, bipolar and ganglion cells [ 45, 46, 47, 48, 49] and from the retina to the LGN and visual cortex.
There is also substantial among-strain variation in other structures in the nervous system including the nucleus of the solitary tract [ 37], the spinal nucleus of the bulbocavernosus [ 38], and retinal ganglion cells [ 39, 40].

However, it is encouraging to note that a reasonable number of genes have been cross identified in three separate array studies looking at the effects of peripheral nerve injury on dorsal root ganglion gene expression, pointing to the reliability of array technologies across differing platforms.
