Combination of ginsenoside Rb1 and Rd protects the retina against bright light-induced degeneration

Abstract Photoreceptor degeneration is a central pathology of various retinal degenerative diseases which currently lack effective therapies. Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities are noted for Panax notoginsenoside saponins (PNS) and related saponin compound(s). However, the photoreceptor pr...
