Valproic acid exerts specific cellular and molecular anti-inflammatory effects in post-operative conjunctiva
19 Nov 2018
Abstract excerpt
Valproic acid (VPA) is a histone deacetylase inhibitor used clinically for neurological disorders. It is also potentially useful as anti-fibrotic therapy as it reduced collagen deposition in the post-operative conjunctiva.
