Abstract:
Objective To observe the effect of superoxide dismutase(SOD)-compound on bacterial ulceration in rabbit's eyes and explore its mechanism.Methods Amikacin and SOD-compound etc.were added to agar inoculating PS.Pyocyaneus and the diameter of inhabiting circles were measured.The rabbit model of bacterial corneal ulcer was created and then treated with amikacin.SOD-compound was used as an adjunctive treatment while inactive SOD-compound as a control.The clinical manefestation and its pathological change were observed and the amlonyldialdehyde (MDA) in the ulcer was assayed.Results In vitro experiment indicated that SOD-compound had no anti-bacterial effect.In rabbit corneal ulcer treated with SOD-compound,the clinical manefestation and pathological change was slighter,the MDA was lower.Conclusion In rabbit's corneal ulceration,free radical and lipid peroxidation take part in the tissue damage.SOD-compound can contradict this effect through eliminating excessive free radical and anti-lipid peroxidation.Therefore,SOD-compound has protective effect on corneal physiology and histological structure in bacterial corneal ulceration.
