Figure 2.

Delayed axon arbor development in the LGN of cpg15 KO mice. (A) Representative images of the dorsal LGN at different developmental times from wild-type (WT) and cpg15 KO mice injected in each eye with wheat germ agglutinin conjugated to different fluorophores. Projections from the contralateral eye (left), the ipsilateral eye (middle), and the merged image from both eyes (right) are shown. For merged images, all pixels above background were pseudo-colored in green for contralateral eye or magenta for ipsilateral eye. White indicates overlap. Notice the similar overlap but different size of labeled LGN at P9. (B) Age-dependent change in the total area of LGN covered by projections from both ipsilateral and contralateral eyes (n = 3 for P4, P9, and P21; n = 5 for P90). (*) P-value < 0.05. (C) Age-dependent change in the area of overlap between projections from ipsilateral and contralateral eyes did not differ between genotypes. Bar, 200 mm.
