Effects of MSC-HO-1 transplantation on retinal ROS and antioxidase activity after I/R injury. (a) Luminol- and (b) lucigenin-enhanced chemiluminescence and the activity of (c) SOD and (d) CAT enzymes in retinas of the control, I/R + PBS, I/R + MSC, or I/R + MSC-HO-1 group were investigated at weeks 1, 2, and 3, respectively ().
