Description
An anti-choroidal neovascularization agent; inhibits proliferation of NIH3T3 mouse and IMR-90 human fibroblasts (IC50s = 0.5-3 µM), as well as in a panel of eight human cancer cell lines (IC50s = 0.3-3 µM); decreases migration of THP-1 macrophages in wound healing and chamber assays at 10 µM; inhibits VEGF-induced blood vessel formation in a MatrigelTM plug assay in mice at 20 µg/animal; reduces ocular leakage, as well as cellular proliferation and infiltration in a rat model of laser-induced choroidal neovascularization at 100 µg/eye
