Glycyrrhizic acid attenuates corneal inflammation and pathological angiogenesis through FAK/PI3K/AKT signaling
Corneal alkali burns lead to severe inflammation and corneal neovascularization (CNV), both of which are major causes of visual impairment. The suppression of inflammation, promotion of epithelial repair and inhibition of CNV formation a...
