Abstract:Previous studies of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) morphology found cell-level and spatial patterning differences in many quantitative metrics in comparing normal and disease conditions. However, most of these studies examined eyes from deceased animals. Here we sought to compare noninvasively imaged RPE cells from live mice to histopathology. We describe changes to improve noninvasive imaging of RPE in the live mouse. In retinal diseases, there can be invasion by Iba1positive cells, which can be detected by… Show more
