Abstract
The purpose of the study is to demonstrate coherent optical tomography and electroretinography techniques adopted from the human clinical practice to assess the morphology and function of the mouse retina in a high-throughput phenotyping environment. We present the normal range of wild-type C57Bl/6NCrl retinal parameters in six age groups between 10 and 100 weeks as well as examples of mild and severe pathologies resulting from knocking out a single protein-coding gene. We also show example data obtained by more detailed analysis or additional methods useful in eye research, for example, the angiography of a superficial and deep vascular complex. We discuss the feasibility of these techniques in conditions demanding a high-throughput approach such as the systemic phenotyping carried out by the International Mouse Phenotyping Consortium.
