Table 2.
Thicknesses of histological layers from control and rd10 mice (μm, mean ± SD). Neural Retina is the sum of all layers. GCL – ganglion cell layer, IPL – inner plexiform layer, INL – inner nuclear layer, OPL – outer plexiform layer, ONL – outer nuclear layer, IS – inner segment, OS – outer segments. Please see Figure 3 for statistical tests.
