Abstract:
Objective To appraise therapeutic effects of tubeimoside on herpes simplex keratitis of rabbits. Methods HSV-1 (SM_(44) strain) is recovered on monolayers of BHK-21 cell cultures, then rabbit model of HSK was established after inoculation. After 0.2g/L Tu topically given, all eyes are examined by using slit-lamp-microscopy, and corneal samples were observed for ocular changes under transmission and scanning electromicroscope. (Results )Differences were significant in the three groups of corneal involvement scores. 0.2g/L Tu can obviously reduce corneal involvement area, and can also help to rehabilitate affected corneal epithelial cells. Conclusion Tu agent is able to cure experimental HSK to a certain degree, however, is less effective on HSK than acyclovir.
