  • Publication number: 20240254493
    Abstract: Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors have been shown to reduce aqueous humor production and thereby reduce intraocular pressure in the eye.

The disclosure relates to double-stranded ribonucleic acid (dsRNA) compositions targeting carbonic anhydrase 2 (CA2), and methods of using such dsRNA compositions to alter (e.g., inhibit) expression of carbonic anhydrase 2.
