Vascular alterations of the superficial plexus in adult Ndphy/− mice. Lectin-FITC-stained retinal whole mount preparations of 2 months old control (A) and age matched Norrin deficient mice (B) detected reduced outgrowth of the retinal primary plexus. (C,D) Analysis of the retinal vasculature and capillary network by PAS stained retinal digest preparations revealed severe vascular alterations in the retina of 2 months old Ndphy/− mice (D) compared to age matched control (C). (E,F) Long-term monitoring by in vivo SLO imaging (ICG angiography) between 2 months (E) and 5 months of age (F) did not reveal further overall vascular alterations. SLO images of the same individual are shown.
