ncRNA name | VEGF shRNA |
ncRNA Category | shRNA |
Disease name | glaucoma |
Species | Homo sapiens |
Tissues/Cell_line | human Tenon's capsule fibroblasts (HTFs) |
Methods | shRNA knockdown, qRT-PCR, Western blot, proliferation assay |
Expression pattern | associated |
Functional description | Both mRNA and protein levels of VEGF were reduced by lentivirus-mediated VEGF-shRNA, and proliferation of HTF cells was inhibited. VEGF may be a suitable therapeutic target for reducing scar tissue formation in glaucoma patients after filtration surgery. |
