Abstract
Dimethyl thiourea is a highly specific hydroxyl radical scavenger. The antiinflammatory potential of this hydroxyl radical scavenger was studied in Lewis rats sensitized with soluble lens protein. Intraperitoneal injection of dimethyl thiourea into the experimental animals at the onset of the disease resulted in marked reduction of intraocular inflammation, hemorrhage and edema, and eliminated the retinal and choroidal necrotizing vasculitis that was characteristic in untreated animals. These findings indicate that dimethyl thiourea may act as a potent antiphlogistic agent in the treatment of experimental lens-induced uveitis.

Abstract
Retinal interphotoreceptor retinoid-binding protein (IRBP) is a potent uveitogen in Lewis rats, producing experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU) reproducibly at doses lower than those of S-antigen (S-Ag). In contrast, IRBP was found to be poorly uveitogenic in three strains of guinea pigs, inducing only minor changes in a small proportion of these animals. On the other hand, S-Ag was found to induce EAU in the majority of immunized guinea pigs, with changes more severe than those induced by IRBP. Unlike the difference in their uveitogenicity, IRBP and S-Ag induced similar levels of specific immune responses in the immunized guinea pigs. The poor uveitogenicity of IRBP in guinea pigs resembles that of A-antigen (A-Ag). The two proteins are also similar in other features and were found in this study to be antigenically identical. It is proposed that IRBP and A-Ag are one and the same protein.

Abstract
Interphotoreceptor retinoid-binding protein was found to be highly uveitogenic in primates. All six monkeys immunized with bovine interphotoreceptor retinoid-binding protein developed ocular inflammation. The main clinical changes were sheathing of retinal vessels and deep well-circumscribed yellow-white lesions. Histologic changes in the retina included shortening of the outer segments and foci of inflammation, which extended through all retinal layers. Particularly profound were the choroidal changes, such as severe inflammatory infiltration, which often formed focal granulomas with epithelioid and giant cells. Some granulomas had the structure of Dalen-Fuchs nodules. These structures and other histologic changes in the monkeys closely resemble those in uveitic conditions in humans, such as sympathetic ophthalmia or Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome. These findings show that antigen that localizes specifically in the retina may initiate an immunopathogenic process affecting mainly the choroid.

Abstract
Uveitis can be induced by systemic or intravitreal administration of endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide, LPS). In this study we correlated the expression of class II antigens (la in rat) of the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC), with this experimental model of uveitis. Ia antigen was detected by immunohistochemistry using the Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex (ABC) method and the monoclonal antibody OX6. Ia antigen was not expressed in normal eyes. However, Ia was expressed in the anterior uvea epithelial cells in all eyes with LPS induced uveitis. This study demonstrates that the ocular Ia expression is a localized process in the anterior uvea in response to systemic or intravitreal LPS. This response appears to be distinct from the action of LPS on macrophage Ia expression, where LPS has been shown to inhibit the induction of Ia antigen in macrophages by gamma interferon.

Abstract
Different forms of experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU) can be produced by varying protocols to present different autoantigens to several species of experimental animal. We have studied the clinical, histological and serological responses of rabbits to footpad injection of various fractions of retina extract. Rabbits injected with retina extract or S antigen developed posterior uveitis. However, rabbits injected with retina extract, also developed an anterior uveitis and pinealitis not seen in rabbits receiving S antigen. The Serological response of rabbits to retina extract was different than that to purified S antigen. Antisera of rabbits receiving retina extract reacted with rabbit retina and pineal gland as well as with guinea pig retina but not with guinea pig pineal gland. In contrast anti-S antigen sera reacted with rabbit retina and guinea pig retina and pineal gland but not with rabbit pineal gland. Gel filtration chromatography of the ammonium sulfate supernate of retina extract was used to differentiate the antigens with which these two sera reacted. An analysis of these experiments gives preliminary evidence of an autoantigen(s) of rabbit retina and pineal gland that is not S antigen. The existence of multiple autoantigens common to retina and pineal gland in various species is significant in that it further underscores the relationship of these tissues. Furthermore, it is not unrealistic to expect more than one autoantigen of retina or uvea to be involved in autoimmune uveitis.

Abstract
A single injection of an aqueous suspension of group A streptococcal peptidoglycan-polysaccharide complexes (PG-PS) when injected intraperitoneally into Lewis rats induced a self-limiting bilateral uveitis with associated perpetuating polyarthritis. The uveitis was characterized clinically during the first 72 h by iritis and fibrin deposition. Acutely, there was infiltration of polymorphonuclear cells. The symptoms gradually subsided, and at the close of the experiment eyes were normally clinically and histologically. In contrast, perpetuating inflammation and severe tissue injury developed in the limb. Using an enzyme immunoassay with specificity for the group A streptococcal polysaccharide, the levels of PG-PS in tissues of animals that were killed 1 to 7 days post-injection were measured. The relative amounts of antigen in eye:limb:liver of PG-PS injected animals were 1:9:170. The differences in the amounts of antigen detected in the eye and limb may help explain the development of the acute uveitis in contrast to the perpetuating polyarthritis observed on PG-PS administration. The authors suggest that bacterial debris may act similarly in causing ocular inflammation in man.

Abstract
Intraocular inflammation (uveitis) was produced in rabbits by intravenous or subcutaneous treatment with N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanyl-D-isoglutamine and several of its synthetic analogs at doses of greater than or equal to 0.2 mg/kg in saline. A dose-dependent increase in permeability of the ocular blood-aqueous barrier as measured by leakage of protein or fluoresceinated dextran from the serum into the eye was observed from 2 to 14 h after glycopeptide treatment. Peak response occurred at approximately 3 h postdose. The lowest dose found to produce maximal vascular leakage for the most active glycopeptide analogs was 1 mg/kg. The adjuvant-inactive L-L stereoisomer of N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanyl-D-isoglutamine was inactive, even at doses as high as 10 mg/kg. Analogs of N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanyl-D-isoglutamine which were homologous in the lactyl side chain were found to cause less uveitis. Chronic biweekly intravenous treatment of rabbits for 1 month with either N-acetyl-L-alpha-aminobutyryl-D-isoglutamine or its lipophilic 6-O-stearoyl derivative at 1 mg/kg, but not with murabutide, resulted in leukocytic inflammatory lesions unique to the uveal tract of the eye. The uveitis was potentially reversible and occurred with decreased severity as long as 2 months after cessation of chronic treatment. Vascular leakage but not cellular infiltrate in the choroid could be modulated by pharmacologic means. Pyrogenicity but not adjuvanticity correlated with ability of glycopeptides to induce vascular leakage. Several adjuvant-active muramyl dipeptide analogs with minimal ability to cause acute vascular leakage or chronic inflammation in the rabbit eye have been identified.

Abstract
Experimental lens-induced uveitis was produced in Lewis rats by sensitization with bovine lens protein prior to disruption of the lens capsule. Treatment of these animals by intraperitoneal injection of dimethyl sulfoxide resulted in reduction in retinal vasculitis, hemorrhage and necrosis. Furthermore, morphometric analysis of choroidal inflammation revealed significant reduction of choroidal thickness in the treated animals. These findings suggest that hydroxyl radicals play a role in producing ocular tissue damage in the acute Arthus-type of ocular inflammation.

Abstract
A single intraperitoneal dose of endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide or LPS) induces an acute inflammatory response in the uveal tract of rats. This inflammation is characterized by a breakdown of the blood/aqueous barrier within 3 hr after the LPS and the subsequent development of clinical disease and a cellular infiltrate. Early change in vascular permeability, clinical, and pathological changes were dose dependent with the two highest doses (100 micrograms or 500 micrograms) producing more severe pathology. Clinical and histopathologic abnormalities peaked at 24 hr and were resolving by 48 hr. Although clinical and histologic changes correlated well, the degree of breakdown of the blood/aqueous barrier at 3 hr failed to predict the extent of the cellular exudate measured by either clinical or histologic criteria. In addition, pharmacologic suppression of the early vascular permeability changes with indomethacin, cyproheptadine, or both agents failed to protect the animals consistently from subsequently developing significant clinical disease or cellular infiltrates on histopathology. LPS-induced uveitis in the rat provides a simple, reproducible model for ocular inflammation without requiring direct eye manipulation. The mediators responsible for the early vascular permeability in this model appear to be distinct from the mediators primarily responsible for the subsequent cellular exudate.

Abstract
The production of soluble lymphokine products of T lymphocytes was studied in the aqueous of rabbits with uveitis induced by intravitreal injection of 2.0 mg of ovalbumin. Aqueous from uveitic eyes demonstrated Ia-inducing activity at a dilution of 1:50 which diluted out at 1:250. The control aqueous and sera from normal or uveitic animals were negative. While production of interleukin 2(IL-2) in uveitic eyes could not be demonstrated in vitro, control rabbit concanavalin A-induced supernatants of nylon-wool-purified T cells contained both Ia-inducing and IL-2 activity. These data demonstrate antigen-driven production of a lymphokine activity in the aqueous of the uveitic eye. Local production of lymphokine may be a potent mechanism for amplification of the inflammatory process in uveitis.

Using a ruby laser, we induced vitreous hemorrhage in each eye of 12 rabbits. On the following day either 25,000 Ploug units of urokinase or saline were injected into the eyes of each rabbit. Urokinase did not accelerate the absorption of blood from the vitreous but prevented the development of severe vitreous fibrosis which replaced the hemorrhage in seven of the control eyes.

Abstract
It is generally accepted that exogenous or endogenous prostaglandins (PGs) can give rise to acute increases in intraocular pressure (IOP) and to the development of flare and other signs of uveitis. It was recently shown, however, that low doses of PGE2 and/or PGF2 alpha topically applied to rabbit or owl monkey eyes significantly reduce IOP. The present experiments show that topical application of 10 to 500 micrograms of PGE2 also causes a highly significant IOP reduction in cat eyes lasting up to 48 hr with little or no development of flare or miosis, whereas similar application of PGF2 alpha causes, in addition to an IOP reduction, the development of profound pupillary constriction. Topical application of either PGF2 alpha or PGE2 to the eyes of rhesus monkeys also causes significant dose-dependent reduction in IOP. The hypotensive response in the rhesus monkey is not associated with detectable flare or consistent pupillary constriction, although at higher PG doses, hypotension tends to be preceded in both species by a brief (15 to 30 min) hypertensive phase. It is concluded that the eyes of different species show different patterns of IOP, miotic, and flare responses to topically applied PGs, the only consistent effect being a reduction in IOP. In some species, most notably in primates, a reduction in IOP is the predominant effect of PGs. Thus, PGs or their analogues may provide a new approach to the clinical control of IOP and the treatment of glaucoma.

Abstract
Purified homologous fibrinogen (2.4-9.4 mg) was injected intracamerally in cat eyes at approximate six months intervals for up to 30 months in order to assess, in vivo, the long-term impact of chronic uveitis on anterior segment fibrinolytic capability. Normal and acutely inflamed eyes responded with slow clotting, small clot formation and rapid lysis (2-3 days). Chronically inflamed eyes showed rapid clotting, larger clots and much slower lysis, with BCG-induced uveitis much slower than endotoxin-induced uveitis. Suppression of plasminogen activator levels within aqueous humor of chronically inflamed eyes was indicated, using modified fibrin plate methods. The normal balance between fibrinolysis and fibrinogenesis within tissues bounding the anterior chamber is apparently tilted in favor of the latter function when inflammation is prolonged.

Abstract
The concentration of copper [( Cu]) in the extracellular fluid compartments of rabbit eyes was found to increase approximately 30-fold during experimental uveitis, generally paralleling increases in [protein]. However, during the recovery phase the decrease in [Cu] lags behind the decrease in [protein] in some rabbits, suggesting the presence of abnormally high levels of non-protein-associated Cu. Intravitreal injection of CuSO4 (6 micrograms of Cu/eye) causes an inflammatory response and evidence of tissue damage. A better understanding of trace element metabolism is clearly required to further elucidate the mechanism of ocular inflammation and associated tissue damage.

Abstract
The form of experimental allergic uveoretinitis induced by sensitization with retinal 's' antigen in rats actually begins as a pars planitis and juxtapapillary choroiditis. Retinal inflammation develops at the middle limiting vascular layer of the retina and extends outward with focal destruction of photoreceptors and inward as a perivasculitis of small retinal vessels. Extensive choroiditis is a late development in severely diseased animals. Significant strain differences in susceptibility to disease were observed.

Abstract
Experimental studies of ocular inflammation induced by endotoxin have been performed almost exclusively in rabbits. Although the rat has been considered refractory to both the systemic and local effects of endotoxin, the present study has shown that intravitreal injection of endotoxin evoked a characteristic acute inflammatory response which was reproducible and dose-dependent. In addition, a consensual ocular response in the control eye occurred which was less severe but also dose-dependent. Preliminary investigations support the view that consensual responses of this nature may be mediated by a nervous reflex are mechanism. Sequential histological analysis revealed a marked polymorphonuclear cell infiltration of most ocular tissues in the early stages, while mononuclear cells predominated after 3 days. Widespread intravascular microthrombi were also observed, particularly in the ciliary vessels. Recovery, however, was usually complete by 7 days.

Abstract
Passive transfer of homologous immune serum in rabbits followed by intravitreous injection with the corresponding antigen resulted in an uveal inflammation which resembled the Arthus-type reaction. Clinically and histologically, the reaction was maximal 24 h after antigen injection. The histologically observed cell infiltration consisted predominantly of polymorphonuclear leukocytes. Passive transfer of sensitized homologous thymocytes followed by intravitreous injection with the corresponding antigen resulted in an uveal inflammation which resembled the delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction. Tissue infiltration of polymorphonuclear cells as well as mononuclear cells occurred predominantly during the first day following antigen injection. An exudate containing almost exclusively eosinophils was present in the aqueous humor and/or vitreous body of most of these rabbits. During the second day an increase in the ratio monomuclear cells/polymorphonuclear cells could be observed.
