Neurons of the ganglion cell layer. The top panel (A) shows a confocal image of the ganglion cell layer, as seen after staining with ethidium. Under these conditions both DNA and RNA are stained, so that extranuclear cytoplasm is revealed (arrows). The nuclei of glia and endothelial cells (arrowhead) were not counted. The two graphs (B, C) show the numbers of cells encountered along two axes (dorsoventral and nasotemporal) intersecting the optic nerve head. Counts are from the Italian colony of C57/BL6 mice.
