[Activity of angiotensin-converting enzyme in the rabbit lacrimal fluid after burn of the cornea].
In the experimental model of severe alkaline burns of the rabbit cornea we found the dependence of angiotensin-converting enzyme activity in tears upon both the time periods and the degree of inflammation. It was indicated that the enzyme activity in tears of animals with ulceration of deep tissues of cornea was much higher than in tears of animals with surface erosion of cornea.
