The mixed rod and cone ERG is altered across a range of light intensities in the P2X7-KO mouse.

Mice were dark adapted overnight and mixed (rod and cone) ERG responses were recorded in response to full field flashes from intensity −4.2 to 2.1 log cd.s/m². (A–B) Representative mixed ERG waveforms for (A) WT and (B) P2X7-KO mice are presented. (C) There was no change in the amplitude of the rod photoreceptor derived component, a-wave, as a function of intensity. (D) The amplitude of the post-photoreceptor response, the b-wave was larger in P2X7-KO mice than in WT mice across almost all intensities tested. * indicates p<0.05, a significant difference between WT and P2X7-KO.
