Intraocular Sustained Release of EPO-R76E Mitigates Glaucoma Pathogenesis by Activating the NRF2/ARE Pathway

Erythropoietin (EPO) is neuroprotective in multiple models of neurodegenerative diseases, including glaucoma. EPO-R76E retains the neuroprotective effects of EPO but diminishes the effects on hematocrit. Treatment with EPO-R76E in a glaucoma model increases expression of antioxidant proteins and is...
