Extraocular Muscle Force Generation after Ricin-mAb35 Injection: Implications for Strabismus Treatment

摘要

Purpose: Ricin-mAb35 is an immunotoxin targeted against skeletal muscle. Previously, we have shown that injection of ricin-mAb35 into rabbit extraocular muscle results in long-term muscle loss, and we have proposed this as a potential treatment for strabismus. In this study, we assessed the effects of ricin-mAb35 injection on extraocular muscle force generation.
