MOESM5 of Spatio-temporal characterization of S- and M/L-cone degeneration in the Rd1 mouse model of retinitis pigmentosa

Additional file 5. Representative images of S-opsin+-cones in transverse sections of the Rd1 mouse mid-retina from postnatal day (P) 14 to P60. At P14, outer segments are typically swollen and misshapen, while ectopic redistribution of S-opsin to the cell body is uniformly evident. By P21, outer nuclear layer thinning is very advanced, and S-opsin+ outer segment degeneration is considerable. S-opsin cell body degeneration progresses gradually from P21 to P60. Scale bar 50 Îźm.
