摘要:
An ophthalmic pharmaceutical composition useful in the treatment of glaucoma and control of intraocular pressure comprising an effective amount of a selective modulator of ALK5 receptor activity is disclosed. Also disclosed is a method of treating glaucoma and controlling intraocular pressure comprising applying a therapeutically effective amount of a pharmaceutical composition comprising a selective modulator of ALK5 receptor activity to an affected eye of a patient.
摘要:
The invention concerns in one embodiment a method for treating glaucoma or elevated IOP in a patient comprising administering to the patient an effective amount of a composition comprising an agent that inhibits PAI-1 expression or PAI-1 activity. Another embodiment of the present invention is a method of treating a PAI-1-associated ocular disorder in a subject in need, comprising administering to the patient an effective amount of a composition comprising an agent that inhibits PAI-1 activity or expression.

摘要:
The invention concerns in one embodiment a method for treating glaucoma or elevated IOP in a patient comprising administering to the patient an effective amount of a composition comprising an agent that modulates PAI-1 binding to vitronectin. In another embodiment, the invention concerns a method of manufacturing a compound to be used as a treatment for glaucoma or elevated IOP comprising providing a candidate substance suspected of modulating PAI-1 binding, selecting the compound by assessing the ability of the candidate substance to decrease the amount of active PAI-1 in the trabecular meshwork of a subject suffering from glaucoma or elevated PAI-1, and manufacturing the selected compound.
摘要:
Compositions and methods for lowering IOP and/or providing neuroprotection are disclosed. The compositions and methods are particularly directed to the use inhibitors of Jun N-terminal kinases (JNK) to lower IOP and/or provide neuroprotection.
摘要:
The use of HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (e.g., statins) to treat glaucoma, control intraocular pressure, preserve the trabecular meshwork, protect against ocular neurodegeneration and/or protect against glaucomatous retinopathy is described. The preferred HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, which are statins having an RI value of 0.2 to 0.7 (e.g., pravastatin), are administered via topical application to the affected eye(s) of the patient.
