Optokinetic response test to reveal visual impairments. Semi-quantitative scoring of the optokinetic response (OKR) test at 100 hpf and 7 dpf for control, KD and rescue larvae. Data show a significant delay for D3bMO when compared to control and D1D2MO larvae at 100 hpf and compared to all groups at 7 dpf (p < 0.001 and p < 0.05 respectively, Chi-square statistics). Co-injection with hD3 mRNA partially rescues the phenotype. SCMO: control group, D1D2MO: KD of D1+D2; D3bMO: KD of D3b, D3bMO + hD3 RNA: rescue group; Full OKR: normal optokinetic response with the eyes following the movement of the stripes and returning to their original position; Partial OKR: the eyes follow the movement of the stripes but do not return to their original position after reaching the border of the visual field; no OKR: fish do not respond to the moving stripes. |
