“Mean severity of uveitis” is the mean of daily uveitis scores calculated over a certain period of time. One eye of the PP-001-treated group (rat 7/PP-001, see Fig. 1) was perforated during injection and not considered. Data are pooled from two independent experiments, Exp. 1, n = 10; Exp. 2, n = 5 rats/group. *p < 0.05
