This study evaluated the effects of α2-adrenergic agonist, prostaglandin F2α analog, and EP2 receptor agonist on tunicamycin-induced endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and fibrosis in human trabecular meshwork (TM) cells. Human TM cells we...
To compare the drug-induced efficacies between omidenepag (OMD), an EP2 agonist, and prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) on glaucomatous trabecular meshwork (TM) cells, two- and three-dimensional (2D and 3D) cultures of TGF-β2-modulated human...
Background. To obtain new insights into the activation of the thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) receptors in human orbital fibroblasts (n-HOFs), the effects of the prostanoid EP2 agonist, omidenepag (OMD), and...
The objective of the current study was to perform a screening of the drug-induced effects of the prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) and EP2 agonist, omidenepag (OMD), using two- and three-dimensional (2D and 3D) cultures of dexamethasone (DEX)-treated human t...
To elucidate the effects of switching a PGF2α agonist, bimatoprost acid (BIM-A), to an EP2 agonist (Omidenepag—OMD; butaprost—Buta) or reversing the switching on adipose tissue, two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) cultur...
To report the updated prescription trend of antiglaucoma medications, the dose-based prescription of a glaucoma medication in Japan in the fiscal year 2019 was aggregated by using the National Database of Health Insurance Claims and Specific Health C...
Serious vision loss occurs in patients affected by chronically raised intraocular pressure (IOP), a characteristic of many forms of glaucoma where damage to the optic nerve components causes progressive degeneration of retinal and brain neurons invol...
To elucidate the additive effects of an EP2 agonist, omidenepag (OMD) or butaprost (Buta) on the Rho-associated coiled-coil-containing protein kinase (ROCK) inhibitor, ripasudil (Rip) on adipose tissue, two- or three-dimension (2D or 3D) cultures of...
