pretreatment with triamcinolone reduced both the accumulation of pge in the aqueous humor and the inflammatory response following paracentesis . intravitreal injection of e. coli endotoxin into rabbit eyes increases pge level in the anterior chamber to 72 +/- 17 ng . per milliliter and induced acute uveitis . slices of iris and ciliary body ( icb ) derived from either rabbit eyes with endotoxin-induced uveitis or normal eyes were incubated for 60 to 240 minutes and the rate of pge release into the medium was measured by radioimmunoassay . after a 4 hour incubation , the pge release from inflamed icb was threefold higher than that of normal icb .
