Mechanism of Action of VP1-001 in cryAB(R120G)-Associated and Age-Related Cataracts

PURPOSE: We previously identified an oxysterol, VP1-001 (also known as compound 29), that partially restores the transparency of lenses with cataracts. To understand the mechanism of VP1-001, we tested the ability of its enantiomer, ent-VP1-001, to bind and stabilize αB-crystallin (cryAB) in vitro a...
