  • Research progress of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 drugs in the treatment of retinal neovascularization disease

    Neovascularization is a characteristic manifestation of a variety of retinal diseases. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) mainly regulates the proliferation and migration of endothelial cells. VEGF receptor 2 (VEGFR2) is the main receptor to mediate this effect. The activation of downstream signals requires the binding of VEGF and VEGFR2, followed by receptor dimerization and autophosphorylation. Blocking this process and inhibiting neovascularization is very attractive treatment ideas. Monoclonal antibodies and fusion protein drugs currently used in ophthalmology can bind free VEGF. In addition, there are also macromolecular antibodies binding VEGFR2 and small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors, which is expected to further expand into the field of ophthalmology. Although anti-VEGFR2 therapy is a revolutionary method to inhibit neovascularization, there are no sufficient clinical evidences at present. In-depth understanding of the application status and progress of anti-VEGFR2 in the treatment of retinal neovascular diseases has important clinical significance.
