“…Die erfolgreichste lokale Antiproteasentherapie richtet sich gezielt gegen Matrix-Metalloproteasen (Serum, Ethylendiamintetraessigsäure [EDTA], N-Acetylcystein und Tetrazykline) und Serinproteasen/Granulozyten-Elastase (Serum), die zum Einschmelzen der Hornhaut führen. Die verschiedenen Wirkstoffe werden in Kombination eingesetzt [5]. Die Antiproteasen sollten sehr häufig (zunächst alle 1-2 Stunden) appliziert werden, bis sich die klinischen Anzeichen deutlich verbessern.…”

“…Aparentemente, este processo não parece estar relacionado ao aumento de MMP (BROOKS & MATTHEWS, 2007). A perda de fibrilas de colágeno e a degranulação de PMN aumentam a destruição estromal -processo que, se não controlado, leva à perda estromal, denominada ceratomalácia, e perfuração corneal (CLODE, 2010).…”

“…A maioria dos antifúngicos é considerada fungistática, dada sua inabilidade de atingir concentrações corneais adequadas mediante um epitélio corneal íntegro (CLODE, 2011). Os antifúngicos mais empregados são os derivados poliênicos e azólicos, que atingem os componentes da membrana celular fúngica (CLODE et al, 2010), e os análogos de nucleosídeos (MATTHEWS, 2009). Dentre os derivados poliênicos, citam-se à natamicina e a anfotericina B, e dos derivados azólicos, o miconazol (1%), itraconazol (1%) e o voriconazol (1%) (BROOKS & MATTHEWS, 2007;CLODE et al, 2010).…”
