  • the present invention provides methods for treating or reducing the severity of myopia, by administering one or more anti-chondrogenesis agents in an effective amount or the pharmaceutical composition described herein to a myopic subject in need of myopia treatment.
  • the anti-chondrogenesis agent may be administered concomitantly or non-concomitantly.
  • the methods also encompass research methods and uses, including in vitro and in vivo methods of treating, or inhibiting the progression of myopia in the subject.
  • the method for treating myopia comprises identifying a myopic subject who exhibits side effect to anti-muscarinic agent, and treating said subject with an effective amount of NSAID, without the anti-muscarinic agent or with a lower dose of anti-muscarinic agent (e.g. 0.05% of atropine).
  • mice Male wild type C57BL/6 mice (Jackson Labs) were used in the examples. All procedures were performed in accordance with an institutional IACUC approved protocol as well as the ARVO Statement for the Use of Animals in Ophthalmic and Vision Research.
  • SSPCs Scleral Stem/Progenitor Cells
  • the SSPCs were isolated and cultured as previously described by CL Tsai et al. (Identification of multipotent stem/progenitor cells in murine sclera. Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci 52:5481-5487, 2011).
  • sclera from the mouse was obtained and was carefully dissected away from limbus and optic disc under a dissection microscope. After retina and choroid tissues were removed, the scleral tissue was cut into small pieces and digested with 1.5 mg/ml collagenase type I (Worthington Biochemical, Lakewood, USA) and 2 mg/ml of dispase (Roche, Basel, Switzerland) in PBS for 1 h at 37° C. to release individual cells.
  • TGF- ⁇ 2 Different concentrations of TGF- ⁇ 2 were added into 12-wells of SSPCs. After 24 hrs, the images of SSPC morphology were recorded. The total RNA was extracted for further analysis. A chamber slide culture for the immunofluorescence study was performed under the same condition.
  • SSPCs were trypsinized and counted to make aliquots of 2 ⁇ 10 5 cells in 2 ml growth medium which were spun down at 500 g for 10 min to obtain the pellet.
  • the pellets were incubated at 37° C., under 5% CO2. Within 12-24 h of incubation, the cells formed an essentially spherical aggregate that did not adhere to the walls of the tube.
  • Culture medium was added with 10 ng/ml TGF- ⁇ 2 and the medium was changed at 2 to 3 day intervals. The pellets were then harvested at 4 weeks. Subsequently, they were washed twice in PBS, fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 3 h at room temperature and prepared for paraffin embedment. Eight ⁇ m thick sections were obtained for immunohistochemistry,
  • Immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence studies were performed to demonstrate the presence of ⁇ -SMA protein and Col2 during chondrogenesis.
  • paraffin sections were treated with a 20% blocking goat serum for 30 min, then incubated with primary antibodies which were rabbit IgG anti-SMA mAb at 1:200 dilution (Abcam, Temecula, Calif.) and mouse IgG2a anti-type II collagen mAbb at 1:100 dilution (Abcam, Temecula, Calif.) at 4° C. overnight.
  • the sections were then treated with horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated secondary antibodies at 1:200 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, Calif.) for 1 hour.
  • HRP horseradish peroxidase
  • the DAB reagent (diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride) was subsequently used to detect the immunoactivity.
  • DAB reagent diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride
  • cryostat sections and rehydrated paraffin sections were treated with blocking serum, incubated with primary antibody, reacted with the corresponding fluorescein-isothiocyanate-conjugated secondary antibody, and finally evaluated by fluorescence microscopy.
  • RNA from SSPCs or the choroid tissue in each eye was isolated using Trizol (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, Calif.) accordingly to the manufacture's protocol.
  • qRT-PCR analysis was carried out using the iScript one-step RT-PCR kit with SYBR Green (Bio-Rad, Hercules, USA) on an ABI PRISM 7900 HT sequence detection system (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, USA), according to the manufacturer's instructions.

  • GAPDH glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase
  • GAPDH and ⁇ -actin served as controls. Ct values of the control gene were subtracted from those of ⁇ -SMA and Col2 to provide a semiquantitative analysis, and fold change
  • mice were anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection of ketamine (90 mg/kg) and xylazine (10 mg/kg), and the diffuser eye patches were sutured to the skin around the right eye whereas the left eye served as a control.
  • the hemispherical plastic diffuser eye patches were made from caps of 0.5-mL PCR plastic tubes. The mice were recovered and monitored on a warming pad until they were fully mobile. Deprived myopia mice were housed in transparent plastic cages under 12 hours of light (200 ⁇ 15 lux horizontal illuminance) and 12 hours of darkness for 21 days.
  • a spectral-domain optical coherence tomography was used for ocular biometric measurement before and after form-deprived myopia induction.
  • the total protein from the sclera was extract by using RIPA protein extraction buffer. After homogenization of scleral tissue, the sample was centrifuged and the supernatant was collected. The protein concentration of each sample was measured using a BCATM protein Assay Kit (Bio-Rad). Scleral protein samples were standardized and electrophoresed on 10% SDS-PAGE gel, then transferred to a polyvinylidene fluoride transfer membrane (Immun-Blot PVDF Membrane, BIO-RAD) at 21 V for 1 h. Membranes were blocked for 1 h at room temperature with 5% dry milk in PBS with 0.1% Tween and incubated at 4° C. overnight with primary antibodies.
  • Membranes were washed and incubated with 1:10,000 goat anti-mouse or anti-rabbit IgG antibodies conjugated to horseradish peroxidase (Santa Cruz) for 1 h at room temperature and washed again. Membranes were developed by chemiluminescence with the reagent Lumigen TMA-6 (GE Healthcare UK limited, Buckinghumshire, UK) and images were captured with the LAS-4000 imaging system (Fujifilm, Tokyo, Japan). Protein bands were quantified using ImageJ software.
