Fig. 6. Retinal expression of intermediate filament proteins after rod photoreceptor ablation. vim (A and B), prph (E and F), and ina (I and J) in situ hybridization in retinal sections from wild-type (A, E, and I) and XOPNTR (B, F, and J) tadpoles treated with Mtz for 7 days. Dashed white lines indicate the boundary between the RPE (dark pigment) and neural retina. White asterisks in B and F indicates expression of vim (B) and prph (F) adjacent to the RPE in the subretinal space. Immunolabeling of retinal sections with anti-Vim mAb (C and D), Prph pAb 1 (G and H), and R5 mAb (K and L) in Mtz-treated wild-type (C, G, and K) or XOPNTR (D, H, and L) retinas. Retinal sections were co-stained with DAPI to visualize nuclei. Scale bars, 50 µm. Image published in: Martinez-De Luna RI et al. (2017) Copyright © 2017.
