In comparison to the normal cornea, where fo ROS-generating oxidases only xanthine oxidase showed significant activity in the corneal epihelium and endothelium, D-amino acid oxidase was very low and α-hydroxy acid oxidase could not be detected at all, in the cornea repeatedly irraddiated with UVB rays, increased activities of xanthine oxidase and D-amino acid oxidase were observed in all corneal layers. reactive oxygen species-generating oxidases (xanthine oxidase, D-amino acid oxidase) contribute to the corneal damage evoked by UVB rays.
