Figure 6. — VEGF-C blockade promotes corneal allotransplant survival. In a masked fashion, orthotopically transplanted corneas from C57BL/6 (Ia^b) to BALB/c (Ia^d) mice were examined biomicroscopically and scored using a grading system designed to detect rejection for 8 weeks after transplantation. The fate of corneal graft is reported by Kaplan–Meier survival curves. VEGF-C blockade reduced the graft rejection rate and markedly improved graft survival from 33% in the control group to 66% in the anti-VEGF-C–treated group (n = 20 per group; *P < 0.05).
