The experimental treatment of corneal graft rejection with the interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) gene.
PURPOSE: To investigate the protective effects of interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) gene transfer in a rat model of corneal graft rejection. METHODS: We constructed a recombinant plasmid (pcDNA3.1-hIL-1ra) with high IL-1ra expression in eukaryotic cells. Using a Wistar-SD rat model of corne...
