Additional file 1: of Retinal alterations in a pre-clinical model of an autism spectrum disorder

Figure S1. Experimental design. IHC: immunohistochemistry; WB: Western blotting; BH: behavioral experiments; ERG: electroretinogram. Figure S2. Chambers used for the behavioral assays in our study. Figure S3. VPA-exposed animals are smaller and lighter than CTR mice. Video S1. Representative CTR animal in the open field test. The video shows the first 3 min of exploration. Video S2. Representative VPA animal in the open field test. The video shows the first 3 min of exploration. Video S3. Representative CTR animal in the social interaction test. Video S4. Representative VPA animal in the social interaction test. Table S1. Arbitrary fluorescence units obtained from individual retinas. Results from CTR and VPA pairs (shown in the same line) were processed together on the same day. Statistics were performed through a paired Student’s t test to take into consideration the fact that results in different lines are attributed to signal variation between experiments. (DOCX 6386 kb
