Schematic of experiment. a In the time-labelled treatment (top), adult mice were isotopic food for a period of 5, 14, 21, or 60 days, after which the animals were sacrificed and the retinas removed. A second group of mice (bottom) were fed 15N-labelled food from E7 to P56, after which animals were sacrificed and retinas removed. b Images were then taken from the ONL, OPL, and INL regions using NanoSIMS. Similarly, histology images were taken of the ONL and INL regions (100x). Imaging locations are represented in the schematic as semi-opaque white boxes. Scale bar for both images: 10 μm
