Objective: To study the mechanism of haze formation and investigate the expression changes of transforming growth factor-αα(TGF-αα), transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1)and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) mRNA in ceal epithelium and stroma after photorefractive keratectomy (PRK).Methods: Sixteen white rabbits were randomly divided into 4 groups, and PRK was performed on each eye of 12 rabbits. The haze formation was examined under a slit-lamp microscope at the 1st, 2na and 3ra month after PRK, and the expressions of TGF-αα , TGF-βi and bFGF mRNA were detected with in situ hybridization.Results: The ceal haze formed at the 1st month after PRK. The most prominent haze formation was observed at the 2nd month, and declined gradually at the 3ra month after ablation. TGF-αα mRNA expression was presented on the normal ceal epithelium and not on the ceal stroma. TGF-βl and bGFG mRNA were expressed by both ceal epitheli and stroma. The capacities for cea tissue expression of three growth factors mRNA increased after PRK, and the peaks appeared on the 1s, 2na month. The extent for expressions of three growth factors related proportionally to the haze formation.Conclusion: Three growth factors took part in promoting ceal wound healing after PRK, and might contribute to ceal haze formation and development.
