Photoreceptor degeneration without exposure to bright light in Rpe65^rd12/Rpe65^rd12 Rho^Tvrm4/Rho⁺ mice

vision/eye

retina photoreceptor degeneration ( J:159523 )

• photoreceptor degeneration without exposure to bright light

• the peripheral retina also shows cell loss but is better preserved than the central retina

retina outer nuclear layer degeneration ( J:159523 )

• at 4 weeks of age, retinas have only 2-3 rows of cell bodies remaining in the central outer nuclear layer

nervous system

retina photoreceptor degeneration ( J:159523 )

• photoreceptor degeneration without exposure to bright light

• the peripheral retina also shows cell loss but is better preserved than the central retina
