Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) knockout leads to blood–retinal barrier (BRB) breakdown in experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU) mice. (A) Representative Evans blue images of retinas in AhR−/− and AhR+/+ non-immunized or EAU mice. Scale bar, 30 µm (n = 4/group). (B) Left, representative Western blotting images of claudin-5, occludin and zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) in retinas of AhR−/− and AhR+/+ EAU mice. Right, quantification of relative fold change of claudin-5, occluding, and ZO-1 expressions (n = 4/group; mean ± SD; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001; unpaired Student’s t-test).
