| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Interaction between the inducible costimulatory molecule (ICOS) and its ligand, B7-related protein (B7RP-1), has been reported to have an impact on differentiation and functions of various T regulatory cells. The purpose of the present study is to further investigate the role of ICOS on inflammatory lymphoangiogeneisis in the cornea and its mechanisms.
