Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) is a multifunctional, proinflammatory cytokine that mediates pleiotropic biological functions, especially inflammation and immunoregulation. We hypothesized blocking TNF-α with monoclonal antibody would decrease subconjunctival scarring in an animal model of experimental filtration surgery.In randomized, prospective, masked-observer study, 30 New Zealand albino rabbits underwent glaucoma surgery. The animals were allocated to receive either intraoperative...
