Abstract
⺠Retinal phenotype in mouse model of Huntington's disease. ⺠Retinal change appeared by 13 weeks of age, co-incident with motor dysfunction. ⺠A functional cone deficit likely arose from loss of cone opsin and transducin protein. ⺠Ectopic rod photoreceptors and remodelled rod and cone bipolar cells were observed. ⺠There was an increase in Müller cell gliosis, yet limited cell loss.
