AIM: To explore the inhibiting effect of FTY720 on corneal neovascularization(CNV)of rat.METHODS: MTT assay and cells scratch were adopted to observe hyperplasia of human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs)and cell migration induced by sphingosine-1-phosphate(S1P)after using FTY720 of different concentration. The effect of FTY720 on CNV induced by S1P in a rat corneal micropocket model was detected. 30SD rats were randomly divided into group A, group B and group C with 10 rats per group. S1P and 0μg, 5μg, and 20μg FTY720 controlled-released particles were implanted into the corneal stroma. The growth of CNV and having pathological examination on 12d after the operation was observed. Findings was analyzed by one-way ANOVA.RESULTS: 10, 102, 103, and 104 nmol/L FTY720 and HUVECs co-incubate 72h could inhibit cell proliferation(P2(F=145.155, PPCONCLUSION: FTY720 can inhibit S1P-induced corneal neovascularization.
