Figure 7. Anti-VEGF antibody ameliorated cystoid and swelling edema in the INL.
Representative images of H&E-stained retinas from untreated, RVO, and RVO + anti-VEGF antibody treated groups on day 1. Plots below illustrate quantitative INL and ONL thickness data. The thickness of the INL was dramatically increased 1 day after occlusion and this was prevented by the treatment with anti-VEGF antibody. ONL thickness was not changed by laser irradiation or treatment with anti-VEGF antibody. Data are expressed as means ± S.E.M. (n = 4–5). *P < 0.05 (one-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni’s post hoc comparison test).
