Targeting Telomerase to Treat Ocular Neovascular Disorders
TS-065809 — Therapeutic strategies for treating ocular neovascular disorders by targeting telomerase.
Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) is the principal driver of blindness in neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nvAMD). Abnormal blood vessel growth beneath the macular leads to retinal damage and severe vision loss. Discovering the involvement of VEGF in the underlying mechanisms driving …
