Endothelin-1 Enhances Corneal Fibronectin Deposition and Promotes Corneal Epithelial Wound Healing after Photorefractive Keratectomy in Rabbits

Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2008
The objective was to study the effects of endothelin-1 (ET1) on corneal wound healing after photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) in rabbit corneas. Following PRK, 18 New Zealand white rabbits were treated with ET1 in the right eyes and with phosphate ...

Genetic Evidence for Differential Regulation of Corneal Epithelial and Stromal Thickness [PDF]

Investigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 2015
Central corneal thickness (CCT) is a quantitative trait associated with keratoconus and primary open-angle glaucoma. Although CCT is highly heritable, known genetic variations explain only a fraction of the phenotypic variability. The purpose of this study was to identify additional CCT-influencing loci using inbred strains of mice.Cohorts of 82 ...

Corneal epithelial proliferation and thickness in a mouse model of dry eye [PDF]

Experimental Eye Research, 2009
Although several studies have previously focused on the conjunctival epithelial response to surface dryness, little is known about the effect of a dry environment on corneal epithelium, which is the most clinically significant tissue affected in dry eye. The aim of this study was to quantitatively evaluate the effect of desiccating stress on the number
