青光眼是全球首位不可逆性致盲性眼病，其特征是视网膜神经节细胞(retina ganglion cells, RGCs)的退行性改变，对全球经济和健康造成了重大影响。其病理变化的分子及生物机制尚不明确，目前青光眼手术和药物治疗仍然局限于将眼压控制在正常范围。小梁网作为房水排出的重要途径，是眼压控制的关键一环。眼压改变引起的视网膜退行性改变是青光眼重要病理过程之一。小梁网及视网膜的体外模型构建是研究青光眼发生发展的主要研究方法。三维培养技术可以使细胞在体外形成一定的空间结构，有利于细胞-细胞及细胞-环境的相互作用，相比传统二维培养，三维培养更加接近体内细胞的生理环境，对于研究疾病的病理生理变化及高通量药物筛选具有重要意义，同时，三维培养更有利于对细胞空间构象变化及其力学性质改变进行研究。三维打印等新技术也在三维细胞培养中有所应用，为三维定制化培养提供技术基础。文章综述了小梁网及视网膜细胞三维培养在青光眼基础研究中的应用研究进展，旨在为进一步探究青光眼病理生理机制提供新的思路。

Glaucoma is the world's first irreversible blinding eye disease, characterized by degenerative changes in retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), which have a significant impact on the global economy and health. The molecular and biological mechanisms of its pathological changes are still unclear. At present, glaucoma surgery and drug therapy are still limited to controlling the intraocular pressure in the normal range. Three-dimensional culture technology can enable cells to form a certain spatial structure in vitro, which is conducive to cell-cell and cell-environment interactions. Compared with traditional two-dimensional culture, three-dimensional culture technology is closer to the physiological environment of cells in vivo, which is of great significance for the study of pathophysiological changes of diseases and high-throughput drug screening. This review discusses the application of trabecular mesh and three-dimensional culture of retinal cells in the basic research of glaucoma, aiming to provide new ideas for further exploring the pathophysiological mechanism of glaucoma.
