(EN) The present disclosure includes methods of treating ocular inflammation or inflammatory ocular conditions, such as uveitis. More specifically the present disclosure relates to inhibiting or reducing the release of inflammatory mediators from inflammatory cells by inhibiting the mechanism associated with the release of inflammatory mediators from granules in inflammatory cells. In this regard, the present disclosure includes an intracellular signaling mechanism that illustrates several novel intracellular targets for pharmacological intervention in disorders involving secretion of inflammatory mediators from vesicles in inflammatory cells. Peptide fragments and variants thereof as disclosed in the present disclosure are useful in such methods.
