ON Injury

ON crush surgery and intraocular injections were performed under general anesthesia. The mice received either 6.4 μg or 25 μg of zymosan 5 days prior and immediately after ON crush into the vitreous. At 5 days prior to sacrifice, CTB (3 μL, 1%; 103B, List Biological) was injected as an anterograde tracer. For C57BL/6 control n = 5; 6.4 μg n = 4; 25 μg n = 5. For CAST/Ei control n = 4; 6.4 μg n = 4; 25 μg n = 6. Quantification was performed blinded to the treatment and mouse strain.
