Handle region peptide, rat (0.1 mg/kg) suppresses leukocyte adhesion in the endotoxin-induced uveitis (EIU) retina, and decreases the leukocyte counts in rats. Handle region peptide, rat (0.1 mg/kg) lowers the protein concentration in EIU rats induced by LPS, and reduces the mRNA expression and the protein levels of inflammatory mediators such as ICAM-1, CCL2/MCP-1, and IL-6 in rats.
