Temporal progressive retinal changes in normal and Tg(Rho)1Wbae/0 mice

vision/eye
• progressive reduction of both rod and cone photoreceptors with age
• light-sensitive outer segments are about 50% of normal length by P20 and continue to shorten over time
• slow degeneration that progresses over 50% of the lifetime of a normal mouse
• associated with a decrease in light-evoked electroretinogram response
• reduction in thickness of the outer nuclear layer
• ERGs from dark-adapted mutants show a significant reduction in teh amplitudes of a and b waves at P30
• between P30 and P210, the a wave gradually decreases and the b wave is reduced to about 30% of normal
