C Representative images of immunohistochemistry staining of cleaved caspase-3. Scale bars, 100 μm. D Western blot analysis for the retinal expression of PCNA, Bcl-2 and Bax. E Retinal MDA and SOD levels measurement (n = 3). F Representative images of retinal immunohistochemistry staining of NRF2. Scale bars, 100 μm. G QRT-PCR for the relative mRNA levels of NRF2-related genes (n = 3). H Western blot analysis for the retinal expression of GPX1, NQO1, HO-1 and NRF2.
