Serum albumin, serum antiproteases and polymorphonuclear leucocyte neutral collagenolytic protease in the tear fluid of patients with corneal ulcers.
Using a micro-electroimmune assay, the concentration of polymorphonuclear leucocyte neutral collagenolytic protease, serum-albumin, alpha-1-antitrypsin and alpha-2-macroglobulin were measured in the tear fluid from 18 eyes of 16 patients with severe, melting corneal ulcers. By this method, PML-c-ase was the first time detected in tear fluid. All proteins normalized during healing of the ulcer. The findings are indicative of an important role for PML-proteases in the degradation of the corneal stroma, and of a regulative effect of the serum antiproteases leaking into the tear fluid from inflamed conjunctival vessels.

[An efficient treatment for recurrent corneal erosions (author's transl)].
A therapy for recurrent erosions of the cornea with trypsin-chymotrypsin ointment is described. Impressed by the efficiency of the digestive enzymes, a theory on the development of recurrent erosions is presented. In cases of recurrent erosions, Bowman's membrane becomes coated with a fine layer of proteinic material which prevents a firm adhesion of the new epithelium on the membrane. Therefore blisters can form. When the surface of the membrane is cleaned by the digestive enzymes, the advancing epithelium will firmly adhere to its base.
