Protective Effect of Hesperetin and Naringenin against Apoptosis in Ischemia/Reperfusion-Induced Retinal Injury in Rats

Figure 1

(a) In controls, normal retina architecture was seen; (b) after ischemic injury, severe retinal damage was noted; (c) ischemic injury plus DMSO group, observed reduction in retinal thickness and injuries; (d and e) there was an improvement in the retinal structure in hesperetin-treated and naringenin-treated ischemic rats, respectively. Retina thickness had increased significantly after in the hesperetin- and naringenin-treated compared to ischemic rats. Haematoxylin and eosin staining (×400).
