Biological Activity

[Description]:

Anecortave acetate is a potent ocular angiostatic agent. Anecortave acetate inhibits neovascularization which is induced by many different angiogenic factors, and increases plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) mRNA expression. Anecortave acetate can be used to research ocular neovascular diseases[1][2].

[Target]

PAI-1[2]

[In Vivo]

Anecortave acetate (5 μl of a 10% suspension; Injected into eyes) significantly inhibits pathologic retinal angiogenesis and increases PAI-1 mRNA levels[2]. Animal Model: Sprague-Dawley albino rats (intravitreally injected with premixed antibiotics to influence retinal vessel growth)[2] Dosage: 5 μl of a 10% suspension of Anecortave acetate Administration: Injected into eyes Result: significantly inhibited pathologic retinal angiogenesis in this model, while not significantly affecting normal intraretinal vessels. Increased 6-to-9-fold PAI-1 mRNA at 1 to 3 days after injection.
