Figure 8. Vsx2-5.3-PRE-Cre expression in Type 2 bipolar cells and photoreceptors of the mature retina indicated by tdTomato conditional reporter expression.

TdTomato fluorescence in >6 weeks old Vsx2-5.3-PRE-Cre mice harbouring the Gt(ROSA)26Sor^{tm9(CAG-tdTomato)Hze} transgene did not co-label Type 2 bipolar cells immunolabeled for recoverin (A–D, arrow) or photoreceptors that were co-labeled for recoverin (E–H, arrows). The asterisk in (E) indicates a region of the tdT-fluorescing cell with photoreceptor outer segment morphology. The dashed lines in (B) and (H) indicate the boundaries of the inner nuclear layer.
