Abstract:The present work investigates the effects of chitosan-hyaluronic acid-epoetin beta (CS/HA-EPOβ) nanoparticles after topical ocular administration in a rat glaucoma model. Wistar Hannover rats (n = 24) were submitted to a complete ophthalmological examination and electroretinography, followed by glaucoma induction in their right eye on day 1 of the study. Treatment group (T) received CS/HA-EPOβ nanocarriers (n = 12), while the control group (C) received only empty ones. Electroretinography was repeated on day 3… Show more
