Quantification of the whole retina thickness (OLM-ILM), distinct retinal layers (A) and the cell number of GCL/100 μm in different conditions (B) by morphometrical analysis. Significant decreases were observed in BCCAO-induced retinal degeneration. The neuroprotective effects of urocortin 2; diazoxide; pituitary adenylate cyclase activating polypeptide and HO3089 treatments were quantified by the thickness of different retinal layers and also the cell number of GCL/100 μm. *p < 0.05 between untreated and BCCAO; #p < 0.05 BCCAO vs. BCCAO+different treatments. Results are presented as mean ± S.E.M. Statistical comparisons were made using the ANOVA test followed by Tukey-B`s post hoc analysis. Abbreviations: OLM: outer limiting membrane; ONL: outer nuclear layer; OPL: outer plexiform layer; INL: inner nuclear layer; IPL: inner plexiform layer; GCL: ganglion cell layer; ILM: inner limiting membrane.
