Assessment of angiogenesis by BK and kallidin in the rabbit cornea assay.

Stimulus (Dose/Pellet)	Corneal Opacity (Day 2)	Sprouting (Day 8)	Sprouting (Day 14)
BK (1 μg)	++	3.6 ± 0.4	5.0 ± 0.1
Kallidin (1 μg)	++	1.8 ± 0.2	1.3 ± 0.9
Kallidin (5 μg)	+++	3.7 ± 0.9	4.6 ± 0.5

Corneal opacity was monitored and scored blind at every observation. The column reports data obtained at day 2. Numbers represent vessel sprouting (area in mm) from the limbus to the pellet implant during time from surgery. Data represents means ± standard deviation (SD) of three implants.
