Intra-vitreal injection of methotrexate in experimental endotoxin-induced uveitis in rabbit
Uveitis is a major cause of vision loss. Methotrexate (MTX) has been widely used in uveitis due to its relatively safe profile. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of two different dosages of MTX via intra-vitreal administration for treatment of endotoxin induced uveitis (EIU) in an experimental model. Thirty-five healthy rabbits were randomly divided into four groups and all ...
متن کاملA novel bispecific molecule delivered by recombinant AAV2 suppresses ocular inflammation and choroidal neovascularization
Elevated vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and complement activation are implicated in the pathogenesis of different ocular diseases. The objective of this study was to investigate the hypothesis that dual inhibition of both VEGF and complement activation would confer better protection against ocular inflammation and neovascularization. In this study, we engineered a secreted chimeric V...
متن کاملPrevention of endotoxin-induced uveitis in rats by benfotiamine, a lipophilic analogue of vitamin B1.
PURPOSE To study the amelioration of ocular inflammation in endotoxin-induced uveitis (EIU) in rats by benfotiamine, a lipid-soluble analogue of thiamine. METHODS EIU in Lewis rats was induced by subcutaneous injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) followed by treatment with benfotiamine. The rats were killed 3 or 24 hours after LPS injection, eyes were enucleated, aqueous humor (AqH) was colle...
متن کاملExpression of serine protease inhibitor 3 in ocular tissues in endotoxin-induced uveitis in rat.
PURPOSE To ascribe the serine protease inhibitor 3 (SPI-3) as an ocular acute inflammatory molecule and to clarify its producing cells in an endotoxin-induced uveitis (EIU) model. METHODS Male Wistar rats were injected with lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and the expression of SPI-3 mRNA in the ocular tissues was examined by in situ hybridization (ISH) and Northern blot analysis. A combination of I...
متن کاملPreventive effects of ethyl pyruvate on endotoxin-induced uveitis in rats.
PURPOSE Recent studies indicate that ethyl pyruvate (EP) exerts anti-inflammatory properties; however, the effect of EP on ocular inflammation is not known. The efficacy of EP in endotoxin-induced uveitis (EIU) in rats was investigated. METHODS EIU in Lewis rats was developed by the subcutaneous injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS; 150 μg). EP (30 mg/kg body weight) or its carrier was inject...
