ISO-1 treatment and MIF genetic depletion both reduce retinal gliosis. Immunofluorescence staining shows GFAP accumulation (green) after RD (b,c,e,f) compared with attached controls (a,d) in vehicle or ISO-1 treated animals at day 3 or day 14 (n = 6/group). Treatment with ISO-1 displayed significant reduction in gliosis in day 14 eyes (k, *p = 0.0256) while GFAP expression in day 3 detached retina was not significantly decreased (k, p = 0.1898). Detached retinas in day 14 BALB/c wild type controls (h) and MIFKO mice (j) displayed increased gliosis by GFAP accumulation over adjacent attached retina in controls (g,i). Detached retina in MIFKO mice had significantly reduced GFAP accumulation compared with background mice (l, n = 5/group, *p = 0.0319). Scale bar denotes 50 microns.
