Ameliorative effect of PN-277 on laser-induced retinal damage
2009
Background
The retinal damage induced by laser photocoagulation increases considerably by the secondary degeneration process whereby tissues adjacent to the primary lesion are destroyed. As the neuroprotective effect of immunization by PN-277 was previously demonstrated in models of retina, optic nerve, brain, and spinal cord lesions, it may be used also for reducing retinal damage induced by laser. The aim of this study was to evaluate the neuroprotective effect of immunization with PN-277 in reducing the spread of laser-induced retinal damage.
