Figure 4. Morphology of the eye from MLR10/Fgfr1Δtmk/flox mice
E14.5 embryo (A) and 30-day-old adult mice (P30; C,E) lenses from MLR10/Fgfr1Δtmk/flox mice were compared to wild-type age-matched control lenses (B,D,F). The equatorial regions of adult lenses (C,D, boxes) were shown under higher magnification (E,F). Notice the size and morphology of Fgfr1 deficient lens was indistinguishable from that of wild-type controls. The retinal degeneration seen in the adult MLR10/Fgfr1Δtmk/flox mouse (C,E) is unrelated to either the Cre transgene or the Fgfr1 mutations and is the result of homozygosity for the rd1 mutation segregating in the mixed genetic background. The scale bar in each panel represents 200 μm.
