Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Scores of Keratectomy Specimens of Dogs with Chronic non-healing Corneal ulcers (Scatterplot, median). A NOG staining. Samples from NOG del/del dogs had a lower mean NOG IHC score than samples from NOG wt/wt, but the difference was not significant (p = 0.0625). B BMP2, and 4 IHC scores of samples from NOG del/del and NOG wt/wt dogs. Keratectomy specimens from NOG del/del dogs had significantly higher BMP2 (p = 0.008) than samples from NOG wt/wt dogs (Man Whitney U Test). Representative IHC images of keratectomy samples from NOG wt/wt and NOG del/del dogs. C. NOG score 3; D. NOG score 1; E. BMP2 score 1; F. BMP2 score 3; G.BMP4 score 1; H. BMP 4 score 3. 10X Magnification
