Topical Ranibizumab inhibits inflammatory corneal hem‐ and lymphangiogenesis

Abstract

Ranibizumab is a potent inhibitor of inflammatory corneal hemangiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis in vivo with a direct inhibitory effect on both endothelial cell types in vitro. This study for the first time demonstrates an inhibitory effect of Ranibizumab on lymphatic vessels which could have a wider range of clinical applications.
