ROS-responsive celastrol-nanomedicine alleviates inflammation for dry eye disease

experiments demonstrated that Cel has excellent biological activities to alleviate inflammation in DED by inhibiting TLR4 signaling activation and reducing pro-inflammatory cytokine expression. Therefore, the Cel nanomedicine can effectively eliminate ocular inflammation, promote corneal epithelial repair, and restore the number of goblet cells and tear secretion, providing a new option for the treatment of DED.
