Non-muscle myosin II (NMII)[1]

In Vitro The therapeutic potential of targeting NMII to enhance CEC migration is investigated using bovine corneal endothelial cells (BCECs). Blebbistatin, a direct myosin motor inhibitor, promotes migration and directional persistence in CECs through decreasing actin retrograde flow and increasing lamellipodial protrusion persistence to accelerate wound healing in vitro[1].
In Vivo Blebbistatin (0.05 mL, 20 μM; intracameral injection; daily; for 6 days; New Zealand white rabbits) treatment promotes wound healing in rabbit corneal endothelial scraping model[1]. Animal Model: New Zealand white rabbits (16-20 weeks; 3-3.5 kg) with injected xylazine 5 mg/kg and ketamine 40 mg/kg[1] Dosage: 0.05 mL; 20 μM Administration: Intracameral injection; daily; for 6 days Result: Resulted in significant improvement of corneal clarity and corneal edema resolution, implying the restoration of an intact corneal endothelial monolayer.
