Age-Dependent Morphology of NADPH Diaphorase-Positive Amacrine Cells in the Mouse Retina

Summary NADPH diaphorase‐positive amacrine cells (NAC) were studied in retinal whole mount preparation of mice, ranging from 1 day to 30 months of age. Following a peak in number and size during early development at postnatal day 14, their number and distribution remained well preserved up to senesc...

Zusammenfassung:Summary NADPH diaphorase‐positive amacrine cells (NAC) were studied in retinal whole mount preparation of mice, ranging from 1 day to 30 months of age. Following a peak in number and size during early development at postnatal day 14, their number and distribution remained well preserved up to senescence. Functional considerations include immunological, vascular and neuro‐modulating aspects.
