Fig. 11From: The effect of a chrysanthemum water extract in protecting the retina of mice from light damageComparison of the apoptosis of the cell layers. Using the ImageJ software, we counted the RGC, INL, ONL, and total number of apoptotic and normal cells. The SPSS software was used to analyse the apoptosis rate for the RGC (a), INL (b), ONL (c), and total cells (d) in each group. The apoptosis rate for the RGC in the LC and HC groups was much lower than that in the LD group (**P < 0.01); similar findings were observed for the INL (**P < 0.01). There was no significant change in the ONL apoptosis rate. The total apoptosis rate decreased significantly in the LC and HC groups (**P < 0.01)Back to article page
