Dimethyl fumarate ameliorates fungal keratitis by limiting fungal growth and inhibiting pyroptosis
CONCLUSION: DMF limits fungal growth by suppressing biofilm formation, conidial adherence and respiratory metabolism. It also exerts an anti-inflammatory effect on fungal keratitis by inhibiting pyroptosis, which could be regulated by Nrf2. Our results suggest that DMF plays a therapeutic role in fungal keratitis.PMID:36641891 | DOI:10.1016/j.intimp.2023.109721
