alanine and Glaucoma

alanine has been researched along with Glaucoma in 4 studies

Alanine: A non-essential amino acid that occurs in high levels in its free state in plasma. It is produced from pyruvate by transamination. It is involved in sugar and acid metabolism, increases IMMUNITY, and provides energy for muscle tissue, BRAIN, and the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM.
alanine : An alpha-amino acid that consists of propionic acid bearing an amino substituent at position 2.

Glaucoma: An ocular disease, occurring in many forms, having as its primary characteristics an unstable or a sustained increase in the intraocular pressure which the eye cannot withstand without damage to its structure or impairment of its function. The consequences of the increased pressure may be manifested in a variety of symptoms, depending upon type and severity, such as excavation of the optic disk, hardness of the eyeball, corneal anesthesia, reduced visual acuity, seeing of colored halos around lights, disturbed dark adaptation, visual field defects, and headaches.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Higher intraocular pressure, higher systolic blood pressure, and higher serum aspartate transaminase to alanine aminotransaminase level were risk factors associated with a large vertical cup-to-disk ratio (vCDR)."4.31Risk Factors Associated With a Large Vertical Cup-to-Disc Ratio: Korean National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey. ( Kim, HK; Kim, SS; Lee, MH, 2023)
"There were no significant differences in fluorescein staining between the untreated and glaucoma eyedrop-treated groups; however, rose bengal staining and the number of inflammatory cells in the conjunctiva significantly increased after glaucoma eyedrop treatment."3.85Rebamipide protects against glaucoma eyedrop-induced ocular surface disorders in rabbits. ( Higashide, T; Kawaguchi, C; Kawaguchi, I; Kobayashi, A; Sakurai, K; Sugiyama, K; Takeji, Y, 2017)
