The new IOL modified by 5-Fu-CSNP could be prepared and have a sustained release of 5-Fu to prevent PCO by promoting HLEC apoptosis. The drug-loaded CSNP could reduce the anterior chamber toxicity of 5-Fu markedly, which was probably due to the occurrence of endoplasmic reticulum stress and induction of apoptosis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
