Brimonidine reduces TGF-beta-induced extracellular matrix synthesis in human Tenon’s fibroblasts

BACKGROUND: Brimonidine is a highly selective α(2) adrenergic agonist that has been widely used in anti-glaucoma eyedrops. The aim of this study was to investigate its putative anti-fibrotic role in the fibrosis caused by activated Tenon’s fibroblasts. METHODS: Primary cultured human Tenon’s fibrobl...
