Application

  • Innovative eye drop applications: Travoprost has been incorporated into engineered lipoprotein nanoparticles, showcasing a novel method for drug delivery aimed at enhancing therapeutic efficacy in ocular treatments, particularly for conditions like glaucoma and ocular hypertension (Fukuda et al., 2024).
  • Prostaglandin analogs in glaucoma treatment: The effectiveness and safety of benzalkonium chloride-preserved travoprost eye drops have been critically evaluated, providing insights into their impact on ocular health, particularly on conjunctival goblet cells, which are vital for maintaining eye surface health in glaucoma patients (Nagstrup, 2023).
  • Travoprost liquid nanocrystals: Research into travoprost liquid nanocrystals has demonstrated their potential as a significant advancement in glaucoma therapy, offering improved delivery mechanisms and potentially greater efficacy in reducing intraocular pressure (El-Gendy et al., 2023).
  • Cerebrospinal fluid reabsorption: Studies on prostaglandin analog effects on cerebrospinal fluid reabsorption via nasal mucosa reveal new roles for travoprost in physiological processes beyond ocular applications, indicating potential new therapeutic pathways (Pedler et al., 2021).
