vision/eye
• photoreceptors show defects in outer segments or the ciliary compartments before weaning
• the outer segments do not separate from the photoreceptor cell body at P10
|
• the outer segment discs are reduced in number and disarrayed, whereas their connecting cilia are normal
|
• mice show loss of photoreceptor cells starting around P10 and degeneration progresses rapidly
|
• outer nuclear layer degeneration by P12
|
• electroretinography shows that mice fail to respond to light stimulation of any intensity at P25
