Fig. 1From: Immunohistochemical localization of NGF, BDNF, and their receptors in a normal and AMD-like rat retinamNGF and TrkA expression in the rat retina during aging and development of AMD-like retinopathy. a Double-label immunofluorescent staining of mNGF (red) and TrkA (green) in the retina of OXYS and Wistar rats (n = 4) at various ages. b Double-label immunofluorescent staining of vimentin (red) and mNGF (green) in the retina of 18-month-old OXYS and Wistar rats. Vimentin expression increased at the advanced stage of AMD-like retinopathy. There was good colocalization of vimentin and mNGF in the OXYS retina. Nuclei were stained blue with DAPI.
