The invention belongs to the technical field of prevention and treatment of proliferative vitretinopathy, and particularly discloses application of a YTHDC1 inhibitor in preparation of drugs for preventing and treating proliferative vitretinopathy.
Cell experiments and animal experiments prove that the YTHDC1 inhibitor can effectively inhibit the EMT process of RPE cells and
delay the
disease progress of a
proliferative vitreoretinopathy animal model for the first time, and the YTHDC1 inhibitor has the potential of serving as a new strategy for preventing and treating PVR and has a good application prospect.
