Heat Shock Proteins 70Â kDa, Eosinophil Cationic Protein, and Nitric Oxide During Chronic Superficial Keratitis in Dogs

The elevated concentrations of heat shock proteins 70, ECP, and nitrite ions in dogs with CSK may indicate that the disease was both localized and systemic. The significant correlation between levels of heat shock proteins 70 and nitrite ions suggests that these parameters may be used as indirect indicators of CSK.
