Figure 7. Aqueous humor analysis in the rabbit eye with induced uveitis at 100 days after rAAV–IL-1Ra administration. The vitreal cavity
of rabbit eyes was injected with rAAV-IL1-Ra, and the contralateral eye was injected with the same amount of rAAV-LacZ. In
another group, the right eye was injected with the same amount of PBS. After 100 days, uveitis was induced by intravitreal
injection of IL-1α. At 24 h after IL-1α injection, the aqueous fluid was aspirated for analysis. The effect of rAAV-IL-1Ra
on rabbit eyes with experimental uveitis was evaluated by aqueous cell counts (A) and protein concentration (B) and compared between the experimental and control groups. Values are expressed as the mean ±standard deviation. The asterisk
indicates statistically significant differences.
