Figure 17. Microneuromas in light induced retinal damage at pLX 60, 120 and 240. Visualization: computational molecular phenotyping (CMP) images displayed as mirrored (AB, EF) or individual (CD) intensity channels. Down arrows, remnant retina-choroid interface; angled arrows, cell migration; ch, fluid channels; ovals, microneuromas. A: γGE::rgb mapping at pLX 60 reveals small microneuromas formed in part by amacrine cell neurites in the distal retina. Each panel is 0.256 mm wide.B: τQE::rgb mapping shows that the microneuromas are embedded in the distal seal region far from the inner plexiform layer.C, D: γGE::rgb mapping at pLX 120 displays larger microneuromas above (C) and within (D) the inner nuclear layer. Each panel is 0.256 mm wide.E. γGE::rgb mapping at pLX 240 reveals small microneuromas flanking a column of migrating neurons. Boxes highlight two misplaced glycinergic amacrine cells. Each panel is 0.170 mm wide.F. τQE::rgb mapping at pLX 240 reveals the complex cell types forming the migration column and that microneuromas are again close to the distal seal.
