Retinal Diseases Associated with Oxidative Stress and the Effects of a Free Radical Scavenger (Edaravone)

Figure 2

Protective effects of edaravone against light-induced retinal damage. Edaravone scavenges light-induced ROS and rescues light-induced photoreceptor cell death by inhibiting phosphorylated JNK, p38 (but not ERK), and oxidative stress to DNA.
