Inhibition of ANGPTL2 mRNA by ANGPTL2 Li-pshRNA eye drops after chemical injury. (a) Fluorescence-labeled topical ANGPTL2 Li-pshRNA permeated the entire thickness of the injured cornea at 1 and 3 hours after injury. (b) ANGPTL2 mRNA expression was reduced after topical administration of ANGPTL2 Li-pshRNA eye drops 36 hours after injury (P = 0.017 and 0.032 for saline as control and negative Li-pshRNA, respectively; n = 6). ANGPTL2 mRNA expression was not inhibited by negative Li-pshRNA. *P < 0.05. (c) At 48 hours after injury, levels of ANGPTL2 expression were the same among all three groups. ANGPTL2, angiopoietin-like protein 2; Li-pshRNA, proline-modified short hairpin RNA wrapped with liposome.
