Background: Cerebral autoregulation is a robust regulatory mechanism that stabilizes cerebral blood flow in response to reduced blood pressure, thereby preventing cerebral ischaemia. Scientists have long believed that cerebral autoregulation also stabilizes cerebral blood flow against increases in intracranial pressure, which is another component that determines cerebral perfusion pressure. However, this idea was inconsistent with the complex pathogenesis of normal pressure hydrocephalus, which includes components of chronic cerebral ischaemia due to mild increases in intracranial pressure.

Purpose: Optic nerve head (ONH) atrophy is frequently associated with hydrocephalic conditions. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-containing meninges form a subarachnoid space that terminates at the ONH, which physically impacts it. This study aims to characterize optic neuropathy in congenital hydrocephalic mice with genetic disruption of the Ccdc13 gene.
