Inhibition of Corneal Neovascularization by Subconjunctival Injection of Fc-Endostatin, a Novel Inhibitor of Angiogenesis
We assessed the antiangiogenic effects of subconjunctival injection of Fc-endostatin (FcE) using a human vascular endothelial growth factor-induced rabbit corneal neovascularization model. Angiogenesis was induced in rabbit corneas through intrastromal implantations of VEGF polymer implanted 2 mm from the limbus. NZW rabbits were separated into groups receiving twice weekly subconjunctival inje...
متن کاملSubconjunctival injection of bevacizumab (avastin) on corneal neovascularization in different rabbit models of corneal angiogenesis.
PURPOSE Bevacizumab is a potent recombinant humanized monoclonal antibody directed against vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the therapeutic effect of subconjunctival injection of bevacizumab on corneal neovascularization (NV) in different rabbit models. METHODS Several rabbit models of corneal NV were used, including (1) a corneal micropocke...
متن کاملInhibition of Corneal Neovascularization by Topical and Subconjunctival Tigecycline
Objective. To investigate the effects of topical and subconjunctival tigecycline on the prevention of corneal neovascularization. Materials and Methods. Following chemical burn, thirty-two rats were treated daily with topical instillation of 1 mg/mL tigecycline (group 1) or subconjunctival instillation of 1 mg/mL tigecycline (group 3) for 7 days. Control rats received topical (group 2) or subco...
متن کاملInhibition of Corneal Neovascularization by Subconjunctival Injection of Ranibizumab and Bevacizumab in Rabbit Cornea
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of subconjunctival ranibizumab and bevacizumab injection on angiogenesis in the rabbit cornea. The corneas of 24 New Zealand rabbits were cauterized with silver nitrate to induce neovascularization. The eyes were irrigated with 10 ml of 0.9% saline solution. The alkaline burns were similar in all the rabbits. At the 24 h after cauterization, the...
متن کاملInhibition of choroidal neovascularization by homoisoflavanone, a new angiogenesis inhibitor
PURPOSE Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of blindness in elderly. The detailed mechanism of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) leads to severe vision loss in patients with AMD. This study was undertaken to evaluate the inhibitory effect of homoisoflavanone on CNV. METHODS Antiangiogenic activity of homoisoflavanone was evaluated by in vitro tube formation assay of h...
