Targeted dexamethasone nano-prodrug for corneal neovascularization management
Background: To overcome the drawbacks of traditional therapy for corneal neovascularization (CNV), we evaluated the efficacy of polyethylene glycol (PEG)-conjugated Ala-Pro-Arg-Pro-Gly (APRPG) peptide modified dexamethasone (Dex), a novel nano-prodrug (Dex-PEG-APRPG, DPA). Methods: Characterization...
