Figure 1. Olomoucine treatment promotes
corneal re-epithelialization in normal mice. A: Eyes were
stained with Richardson’s stain immediately after debridement wounding
(0 h) or 18 h afterward. At 0 h and 6 h after wounding, control animals
received a sterile vehicle (1.0% DMSO in PBS) and the treatment group
received 15 μM olomoucine. Scale bar=100 μM. B: The graph shows
the remaining wound area as a percentage of average initial wound area
(mean ± SEM). The difference between olomoucine-treated and control
mice was statistically significant (p<0.05; n=28–30).
