The invention discloses a construction method and
system of a herpes simplex
keratitis infection model. The method comprises the following steps: fixing a mouse in a mild
anesthesia state and enabling eyeballs of the mouse to protrude as much as possible, sucking an HSV-1
virus suspension by using a microsyringe, obliquely inserting a needle from the
cornea edge close to the
sclera, keeping the inclined surface of the needle upward, slowly penetrating through the
cornea epithelium to enter a target position of a matrix layer, and finally obtaining the HSV-1
virus suspension. The needle head is tightly attached to the
cornea plane in the injection process; after injection is completed, the needle is slowly withdrawn; in the needle inserting and withdrawing processes, real-time observation is carried out through a stereoscopic
microscope to ensure that the needle tip is kept away from the crystalline lens. According to the method, the stable and reliable HSK model can be established under the low
virus titer (1 * 10 < 5 > PFU), meanwhile, experimental interference caused by mechanical damage is avoided, the specificity and
repeatability of the model are improved, and a higher-quality experimental platform is provided for HSK
pathogenesis research and
drug screening.
