OBJECTlVE:To evaluate the value of inhibiting effect of the verapamil(Ver)on human selcral fibroblast (HSF).
METHODS:The rate al inhibition of Ver,5-Fu,heparin(Hep)and
dexamethasone(Dex)to cultured HSF was respectively determined by MTT method and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. In addition,the rate of inhibition of Ver associated with 5-Fu Hep and
Dex to cultured HSF was respectively determined.
RESULTS:The rate of cellular proliferation of cultured HSF was found to be significantly reduced(Plt;0.05),when the concentration of Ver was
20mg/L,and further reduced when 5-Fu,Hep or Dex was added even in smaller dose (5~10mg/L)of Ver.
CONCLUSION: Tbe effect of inhibition of cellular proliferation of 5-Fu, Hep and Dex in eye could be enbenced by Ver.
