• the length of the outer segment is reduced slight at 9 months but progressively reduced with age and is absent at 19 months
• at 9 months, the apical processes of the retinal pigmented epithelium are absent, and lipofuscin-like granules are present
• at 9 months, the apical processes of the retinal pigmented epithelium are absent, and lipofuscin-like granules are present
• at 19 month, the retinal pigmented epithelium is atrophic and hypo-pigmented compared to in wild-type mice
• at 9 months, swollen and necrotic cells are found in the inner nuclear layer
• the width of the outer nuclear layer is reduced slight at 9 months but progressively reduced with age and is absent at 19 months
• at 4 months, occasional swelling in the synaptic terminal in the outer plexiform layer is observed
• at 9 months, many synaptic terminals are swollen and lucent with some appearing necrotic
• at 14 months, mice exhibit signs of retinal degeneration such as vessel attenuation, alterations in the retinal pigmented epithelium and the presence of retinal dots unlike in wild-type mice
• between 8 and 16 months, mice exhibit a progressive loss of amplitude in dark-adapted and light-adapted electroretinogram response compared to wild-type mice
• at 22 months, rod and cone response is undetectable
• at 16 months, rod response is minimal
• at 22 months, rod and cone response is undetectable
