nervous system
• mutants exposed to moderate intensity light show an accumulation of superoxide in rods at a level 3.5 times greater than in wild-type mice
|
• mutants exhibit rod photoreceptor degeneration in response to moderate intensity light exposure that is not seen in wild-type mice
• mutants reared under a moderate light/dark cycle, but not dim/dark cycle conditions, develop severe retinal degeneration in less than 6 months
