Journal ArticleDOI
Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-generating oxidases in the normal rabbit cornea and their involvement in the corneal damage evoked by UVB rays.
TL;DR: Comparative histochemical and biochemical findings suggest that reactive oxygen species-generating oxidases (xanthine oxidase, D-amino acid oxidase) contribute to the corneal damage evoked by UVB rays.
Journal ArticleDOI
Decreased expression of antioxidant enzymes in the conjunctival epithelium of dry eye (Sjögren's syndrome) and its possible contribution to the development of ocular surface oxidative injuries.
TL;DR: It is suggested that the decreased expression of antioxidant enzymes in dry eye disease (SS) contributes to the development of anterior eye surface oxidative injuries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative histochemical and immunohistochemical study on xanthine oxidoreductase/xanthine oxidase in mammalian corneal epithelium.
TL;DR: Examination of corneal epithelium of normal eyes of ox, pig, guinea-pig, and rat using immunohistochemical and enzyme histochemical methods shows that xanthine oxidoreductase and xanthinine oxidase are present both as proteins and as active enzymes in the corneals of all animals studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Age-related changes in superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, catalase and xanthine oxidoreductase/xanthine oxidase activities in the rabbit cornea.
TL;DR: It is suggested that young and particularly aged corneas might be more susceptible to oxidative stress than are young adult Corneas, and some imbalance between antioxidant and prooxidant enzymes exists already in the normal aged cornea.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In conclusion, stem cell treatment accelerated regeneration of the corneal epithelium, restored the antioxidant protective mechanism, and renewed cornea optical properties after alkali burns.
