Figure 3. Time course of lymphatic valve formation during corneal inflammation.

Figure 3

(A) Representative micrographs demonstrating the increase of lymphatic valves in sutured corneas with the progression of corneal inflammatory lymphangiogenesis. Itga-9: red; LYVE-1: green. Original magnification: 50 X. Dashed lines: demarcation between the cornea and conjunctiva. (B) Summarized data from repetitive experiments showing lymphatic valve quantification at day 3, 7, and 14 after suture placement. **P<0.01.
