Scientists at the University of Missouri report that two natural molecules — agmatine and thiamine — are reduced in samples from glaucoma patients and could serve as early biomarkers. In preclinical work, the compounds also showed signs of protecting retinal cells, suggesting a path to earlier detection and potential neuroprotective therapies.
