vision/eye
• the photoreceptor axoneme is reduced in length 2 weeks after tamoxifen induction in adults
|
• marker analysis indicates that normal trafficking of outer segment proteins in rod photoreceptors is altered after tamoxifen induction in adults
• accumulation of vesicles is seen within the photoreceptor outer segments after tamoxifen induction in adults
|
• majority of photoreceptor cells are lost 5 weeks after tamoxifen induction in adults
|
• mice injected with tamoxifen at P60 for 3 days show a reduction in scotopic (rod) photoresponse at 3 weeks after injections, leading to complete ablation of photoresponse 5 weeks after injections
• mice injected with tamoxifen at P60 for 3 days show a severe reduction in photopic photoresponses 5 weeks after injections
• however, the scotopic photoresponse is unaltered 2 weeks after tamoxifen injection
