Retinal neuroanatomy of two emerging model organisms, the spiny mouse ( <i>Acomys dimidiatus</i> ) and the Mongolian gerbil ( <i>Meriones unguiculatus</i> )

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Purpose</h4> Degenerative eye diseases such as macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa slowly deteriorate vision, ultimately leading to blindness. Current research with laboratory animal models largely utilizes small mammals that are nocturnal and lack the ability to restore lost vision. In contrast, the Mongolian gerbil is a diurnal rodent with good photopic vision, and the eastern spiny mouse is a sma...
