Abstract:
To investigate the role of intercellular adhesion molecule 1(ICAM 1) in the pathogenesis of bacterial keratitis,22 rats were randomly divided into bacterial keratitis group and control group. A specific staining of corneal epithelial cells, stromal keratocytes and endothelial cells for ICAM 1 was carried out by using monoclonal antibody to ICAM 1 and immunohistochemical staining techniques. The results showed that ICAM 1 expressed a low level in the corneal epithelial cells, stromal keratocytes and endothelial cells in the control group(-~+), while its expression was strong in the keratitis group (~). The difference between two groups was statistically significant ( P
