vision/eye
• outer retinal thickness is already reduced at P15 and thereafter declines
• activated Muller cell processes are seen across the outer nuclear layer
• retinal schisis is apparent until later adult stages when it becomes less apparent
• schisis severity peaks at P15
• cone pedicles are malformed
• cone outer segments are shortened
• dark-adapted ERG is reduced in amplitude
• the light-adapted cone ERG is reduced in amplitude at P15, P24, and 10 weeks of age
• the b-wave is reduced more than the a-wave, indicating a negative ERG waveform
• dark-adapted a-wave amplitude is reduced at P15, P24, and 10 weeks of age
• dark-adapted b-wave amplitude is reduced at P15, P24, and 10 weeks of age with the greatest ERG b-wave reduction at P15 and P24
• light-adapted b-wave amplitude is reduced at P15, P24, and 10 weeks of age
• retinal ganglion cell electrophysiology shows elevated activity in the absence of a visual stimulus and reduced signal-to-noise ratios in response to light stimuli

nervous system
• activated Muller cell processes are seen across the outer nuclear layer
• density of astrocyte processes is increased, reflecting either increased numbers or activation of the cells
• numerous dendritic processes of synaptotagmin II+ bipolar cells invade the outer nuclear layer indicating aberrant sprouting
• ectopic outer nuclear layer sprouting of cone bipolar cells
• cone bipolar cell projections into the inner nuclear layer are seen
• aberrant sprouting is also seen in rod bipolar cells and PKC+ rod bipolar cell dendrites are seen to extend toward and into the outer nuclear layer
• calbindin+ horizontal cells extend their neurites into the outer nuclear layer compared to their normal termination in the outer plexiform layer in wild-type mice
• cone pedicles are malformed
• cone outer segments are shortened
• retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) show an increase in spontaneous firing rate, in both ON- and OFF-type RGCs
• both excitatory and inhibitory inputs show aberrant activity in retinal ganglion cells
