Figure 8. Exercise prevents accumulation of nucleated cellular infiltrates in the interphotoreceptor space. As observed in Figure 4 and Appendix 5, induction of I307N Rho degeneration increased the number of nucleated cellular infiltrates in the interphotoreceptor space (near the outer segment layer) of the inactive mice. Counting these infiltrates across entire retinal sections revealed that the induced, inactive mice (red bar) had statistically significantly more infiltrates compared to uninduced mice (black bar). However, this increase was prevented in exercised mice (green bar). *p<0.05 versus other groups with one-way ANOVA with the Newman-Keuls multiple comparisons test. n=3 sections/group. Error bars represent standard error of the mean (SEM).
