Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) have been implicated in the regulation of outflow resistance of aqueous humor flow through the trabecular meshwork (TM). Their role was further investigated by assessment of the effects of chlorate, an inhibitor of sulfation, and beta-xyloside, which provides a competitive nucleation point for addition of disaccharide units, in anterior segment perfusion culture.
