In situ hybridization of CPEB3 on P60 mouse retina. Sense probe complementary to the antisense probe was used for the negative control. The probes were designed in a region with no significant homology to any other CPEB to ensure specificity. The expression of CPEB3 mRNA was located mostly in the RGC layer and to a lesser extent, the INL. Scale bar represented 50 μm. ONL: outer nuclear layer; OPL: outer plexiform layer; INL: inner nuclear layer; IPL: inner plexiform layer; RGC: retinal ganglion cell layer.
