Figure 7. INCB018424 administration reverses the protective effects of ALA on ONC retinas. A-C: Representative micrographs (200× magnification) of retinal whole mounts obtained from three groups stained with anti-RNA-binding protein with multiple splicing (Rbpms) antibody (green). Sampling location: 2 mm temporal to the optic disc. Sampling field size: 439 × 330 μm2 (20× objective lens). Scale bar: 50 μm. D: Quantitative analysis of Rbpms-positive cells under different experimental conditions (mean ± standard error of the mean [SEM], n = 6 per group). The average number of Rbpms-positive cells/mm2 was calculated. ONC = optic nerve crush animal; ALA-ONC = alpha lipoic acid (ALA) animal pretreated 1 day before ONC; ALA-ONC+I = ALA animal pretreated 1 day before ONC, followed by INCB018424. *** p<0.001, ** p<0.01 compared to the ONC group, ### p<0.001 compared to the ALA-ONC group at the same time point.
