A Chick Model of Retinal Detachment: Cone Rich and Novel
Figure 7
NIRG cells are mildly up-regulated after chick HA RD.
NIRG cells (arrows) are positive for Nkx2.2 (green, a–f) and Sox9 (orange, c, d) and are increased after HA RD compared to controls. The up-regulation of NIRGs is less than that of Müller glia (Sox9+/Nkx- cells in the inner nuclear layer and outer retina). NIRGs were identified in subretinal scars (f, arrow; green = Nkx, blue = DAPI).
