In conclusion, the authors open a discussion on the importance of emotional management as an essential part of any profession related to health care and underline its importance for the quality of caregiving services.In an ex vivo rat glaucoma model using dissected retinas, the neurosteroid allopregnanolone (AlloP) protects retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) via GABR/GABAA receptors. To determine the involvement of macroautophagy/autophagy in neuroprotection by AlloP, we examined the effects of autophagy activators, rapamycin and torin 2, and autophagy inhibitors, bafilomycin A1 and SAR405, on retinal retinal morphology and expression of MAP1 LC3B/LC3B (microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 beta) and SQSTM1 (sequestosome 1). Administration of rapamycin or torin 2 exerted partial histological neuroprotection, while combined administration of AlloP with bafilomycin A1 or SAR405 induced severe degeneration in a hyperbaric condition. Electron microscopic analyses showed that the addition of AlloP significantly increased autophagosomes and degenerative autophagic vacuoles in the retinal nerve fiber layer. Immunoblotting showed that the addition of AlloP or autophagic activators increased the lipidated form of LC3B (LC3B-IIexiform layer; LC3B-I cytosolic form of LC3B; LCB-II lipidated form of LC3B; MAP1LC3B/LC3B microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 beta; mPTP mitochondrial permeability transition pore; NDS neuronal damage score; NFL nerve fiber layer; OH ocular hypertension; ON optic nerve; ONL outer nuclear layer; OPL outer plexiform layer; p-STR scotopic threshold response; RGC retinal ganglion cells; RT-PCR real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction; SQSTM1 sequestosome 1; TUNEL TdT-mediated
