“…In the present research the intensity of the expression of FGF-2 occurred in a very similar way between the studied groups. Those results oppose the findings of OH et al (1999), which reported a smaller expression in animals that received mitomycin C. Since FGF-2 is produced by macrophages, fibroblasts, mast cells, lymphocytes T and by endothelial cells (KUMAR et al, 2005) and if mitomycin C has effect only over fibroblastic proliferation (YAMAMOTO et al, 1990), we admit that it has little interference on the production of FGF-2.…”

“…Furthermore anticicatricial agents were also used such as daunorubicin, bleomycin, mitramycin, 5-fluoracil, cyanoacrylate and mitomycin C (LEE et al, 1990;CRUZ, 1996;MAMEDE et al, 2004). Antifibrotic effects of mitomycin C have been reported in in vitro and in vivo studies (KUNITOMO & MORI, 1969;YAMAMOTO et al, 1990). There have been several communications regarding the use of antifibrotics effects in the correction of strabismus in concentration varying from 0.02% to 0.05% (BROOKS et al, 1996;CRUZ, 1996;OH et al, 1999;MINGUINI et al, 2000;MAHINDRAKAR et al, 2001;MAMEDE et al, 2004).…”

“…Entretanto, a quantidade de espécimes foi maior que o que se observa em outros estudos (4)(5)(6) , provavelmente por causa dos altos custos para a realização das culturas celulares e também por causa da dificuldade que as células fibroblásticas provenientes da conjuntiva possuem em se replicar.…”

“…O uso de agentes antiproliferativos promove uma melhora nos índices de sucesso desta cirurgia por inibir a proliferação fibroblástica e a biosíntese de colágeno e material extracelular (1)(2) . O 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) é uma droga capaz de inibir a proliferação de fibroblastos in vitro e in vivo, reduzindo a síntese de colágeno e a formação da cicatriz (3)(4) . A droga pode ser injetada no espaço subconjuntival no período pós-operatório (5) , ou aplicada sob o retalho conjuntival durante o procedimento cirúrgico.…”
