Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Intravitreous injection of anti-VEGF antibodies has been demonstrated to cure intraocular neovascularization. We developed an eye ointment containing new SRPK inhibitor to reduce the risk of several complications by intraocular injection. In a mouse model of laser-induced choroidal neovascularization, topical administration of eye ointment containing SRPK inhibitor significantly inhibited choroidal neovascularization than that of control ointment. We tried to make a pro-drug of the SRPK inhibitor that is more efficient. We synthesized that compound in large quantity and got an acetylated derivative of the SRPK inhibitor referring to previous report.
