Table 1. Quantitative data of AGB labeling of photoreceptors in C57BL/6 and rd/rd mouse retinas
The table show the ages, number of animals and number of AGB positive photoreceptors counted in the outer nuclear layer of control and rd/rd retinas. The ratio of AGB labeled cells in the rd/rd over control retina is indicative of higher AGB entry into the photoreceptors of rd/rd retinas.
