Phenotype Image Detail

Caption

(B) Plastic sections of retinas from postnatal day (PND) 63 wild-type (WT) and Rho^tm1.1Kpal/Rho⁺ (P23H/+) mice were stained with toluidine blue. Rod and cone photoreceptor nuclei were distinguishable by the shape of their chromatin; cone nuclei are indicated by arrows. We also identified dead rod photoreceptor nuclei that had lost clumps of chromatin (indicated by arrowheads). (C) Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images reveal dead photoreceptor cell nuclei in both WT and heterozygous mice. IS, inner segment; OLM, outer limiting membrane; and ONL, outer nuclear layer.
