HXMM alleviated BRVO rat retinal edema and protected BRVO rat retinal integrity. (a) The typical HE pictures of normal and BRVO rat retina treated with different doses of HXMM at 1 d and 21 d postocclusion. (b, c) The thickness of INL and ONL of normal and injured BRVO rat retina treated with different doses of HXMM at 1 d postocclusion. (d, e) The thickness of INL and ONL of normal and BRVO rat retina treated with different doses of HXMM at 21 d postocclusion. The red arrow denotes retina disorder; the black arrow denotes ONL edema; and the yellow arrow denotes a thinner ONL. The statistical significance was determined by one-way ANOVA. Data are presented as the mean ± SEM. n = 6 rats per group. ∗p < 0.05, HIGH, MOD, LOW, and CK groups vs. NOR group; #p < 0.05, HIGH, MOD, and LOW groups vs. CK group; &p < 0.05, HIGH and MOD groups vs. LOW group.
