A bio-functional polymer that prevents retinal scarring through modulation of NRF2 signalling pathway
Aberrant wound healing, which leads to irreversible fibrosis, underpins many pathological diseases. In the eye, this manifests as proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR), a major cause of poor vision due to failed retinal detachment (RD) surgery1,2. PVR occurs due to proliferative and contractile fibrocellular scar membranes that form either in the vitreous or surrounding the retina.

Circulating Ly6Chi monocytes often undergo cellular death upon exhaustion of their antibacterial effector functions, which limits their capacity for subsequent macrophage differentiation. This shrouds the understanding on how the host replaces the tissue-resident macrophage niche effectively during bacterial invasion to avert infection morbidity.
