In a previous report, we found that the occurrence and amount of meningothelial cell nests in the subarachnoid space are significantly increased in glaucomatous optic nerves compared to normals. In order to allow research into the role of meningothelial cells during diseases of the optic nerve, an in vitro model is necessary. For this purpose, we developed a culture method for porcine meningothelial cells from the arachnoid layer covering the optic nerve.
