Inhibition of Galectin-3 Impairs Antifungal Immune Response in Fungal Keratitis

Figure 1

The cornea samples of the patients with fungal keratitis with the typical anterior segment photographic appearance (a) and corneal PAS staining results (b) were collected to culture fungi. Aspergillus fumigatus was isolated from the culture flora (c). It was lactic acid phenol cotton orchid stained to reveal the typical aspergillus morphology under the microscope, including branching hyphae and granular spores (d).
