AIM: To observe the protective effect of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hucMSCs) on retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) injury in mice with acute ocular hypertension (AOH). METHODS: Fifty-six adult male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into four groups: normal group, AOH group, hucMSCs gro...
