Effect of suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) and mitomycin C (MMC) on the attenuation of myofibroblasts after photorefractive keratectomy (PRK). Representative fluorescence images of rabbit corneas that underwent −9.00 diopter (D) PRK followed by balanced salt solution, or SAHA (25 μM), or MMC (0.02%) treatment at 1 and 4 months after treatment. Myofibroblasts (arrows) for α-smooth muscle actin in the subepithelial stroma (green). SAHA (B and E) and MMC (C and F) treatment significantly decreased α-SMA compared to control corneas (A and D). Scale bar = 100 μm (Blue = DAPI-stained nuclei, Green = α-SMA+ cells)
