Total numbers and densities of Brn3 positive RGCs in albino and pigmented rats.

In this table are shown the total numbers of the different RGC populations (FG-traced, Brn3a, Brn3b or Brn3c positive RGCs) in albino (SD) and pigmented (PVG) rats. In the right-most column is shown the total number of Brn3+RGCs counted when Brn3a, Brn3b and Brn3c were detected with the same fluorophore. As explained in methods, FG and Brn3a and Brn3b and Brn3c were detected in the same retinas. The area of each retina was measured allowing the calculation of the mean retinal density of each population. Data are shown as the mean ± standard deviation (SD). n = number of analyzed retinas.
