Effects of Ripasudil, a Rho-Kinase Inhibitor, on Scar Formation in a Mouse Model of Filtration Surgery

CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that ripasudil, ROCK inhibitor may inhibit excessive fibrosis after glaucoma filtering surgery vis inhibition the transdifferentiation of tenon fibroblast into myofibroblast and may have a potential effect as anti-scarring for glaucoma filtration surgery.PMID:37216470 | DOI:10.1080/02713683.2023.2217367
