Fig. 9 Mitochondrial defects in the zebrafish retina. A and B, assessment of mitochondrial function in the retina by enzyme histochemistry (EHC) staining for COX (A) and SDH (B) in the frozen sections of retina in the yars2+/+, yars2+/−, and yars2−/− larvae at 5 dpf. Scale bar, 100 μm. C and D, mitochondrial morphology from photoreceptors (PR) (C) and RGC (D) of transmission electron microscopy. Ultrathin sections were visualized with 25,000× magnification. Scale bar, 1 μm. e, ellipsoid; m, mitochondrion; n, nucleus; os, outer segment of photoreceptors. E and F, quantification of mitochondrial numbers of photoreceptors (E) from yars2+/+ (n = 20), yars2+/− (n = 20), and yars2−/− (n = 25) and RGC (F) from yars2+/+ (n = 32), yars2+/− (n = 24), and yars2−/− (n = 25) zebrafish at 5dpf. Graph details and symbols are explained in the legend to Figure 2.
