EVALUATION OF A STEROID DELIVERY SYSTEM TO MITIGATE THE SEVERITY OF PROLIFERATIVE VITREORETINOPATHY IN A MINIPIG MODEL

Evaluation of a steroid delivery system to mitigate the severity of proliferative vitreoretinopathy in a minipig model

PurposeTo investigate the efficacy of liposomal prednisolone phosphate to mitigate the severity of proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) in a minipig model of PVR.MethodsA total of 18 eyes of 9 minipigs underwent PVR induction surgically.Eyes were randomized equally into three groups: intravitreal injection of liposomal prednisolone phosphate (LPP)

The Stable Gastric Pentadecapeptide BPC 157 Pleiotropic Beneficial Activity and Its Possible Relations with Neurotransmitter Activity

We highlight the particular aspects of the stable gastric pentadecapeptide BPC 157 pleiotropic beneficial activity (not destroyed in human gastric juice, native and stable in human gastric juice, as a cytoprotection mediator holds a response specifically related to preventing or recovering damage as such) and its possible relations with neurotransm
