Table 2.
Ratio of TUNEL- and AIF-Positive Photoreceptors in Total Photoreceptors in C3H Mice on Day 3
Wild-type | gld | lpr | |
---|---|---|---|
TUNEL-positive (%) | 5.33% | 5.62% | 5.11% |
AIF-positive (%) | 2.92% | 3.11% | 2.98% |
Ten sections for each eye specimen were randomly selected for the evaluation (n = 6). No significant difference was found between these mouse strains as far as the RD-induced AIF- and TUNEL-positive nuclei of photoreceptors.
