vision/eye
• retinas show wider and more loosely packed discs
• retina shows strong S-opsin signals in rod and cone outer segments
• retina shows reduced outer segment thickness at 2 months of age
• however, outer nuclear layer thickness is normal at 2 months and no degeneration is seen at 12 months of age
• the rod outer segment length is decreased by about 10%
• the outer segments are disorganized but the photoreceptor disk structure of the outer segments is unaffected
• mice show lower sensitivity to low-to-moderate flash luminescence than controls and show delayed signal transmission from rods to rod bipolar cells at low flash luminescence
• the implicit time of the b-wave on dark-adapted ERGs, indicating transduction process speed between rods and bipolar cells, is delayed in 2-month-old mice
• however, light-adapted ERGs show no difference in implicit times of photopic b-waves or a-waves
• dark-adapted (scotopic) ERGs show decreased a-wave amplitude at 2 months of age
• dark-adapted (scotopic) ERGs show decreased b-wave amplitude at 2 months of age
