Nestin staining. Immunohistochemical analysis of nestin in the vehicle (a–b) and trimebutine (c–d) groups. Bar, 50 μm. The black arrow indicates nestin-positive endothelial cells of a new blood vessel (a). Nestin-positive newly formed endothelial cells were observed in the corneal limbus from day 4 after the alkali burn (a, c). In the early phase (day 4), newly formed blood vessels were significantly fewer in the trimebutine groups than in the vehicle group (e). Data are presented as the mean ± standard error (n = 8 samples/group). *p < 0.05.
