    APOE4 causes deficits in the Kir4.1. (a) Representative images of retinal slices showing Glutamine synthase (GS) and Kir4.1 staining pattern in <t>APOE3</t> and APOE4 mice, scale 20 μm ( n : APOE3 = 3, APOE4 = 3). (b) Bar graph showing quantification of immunofluorescence for Kir4.1 and GS ( n : 11–12 images/group). (c) Representative current traces of Kir4.1 from freshly isolated Müller cells from APOE3 and APOE4 mice with and without 1 mM BaCl 2 treatment. Currents were elicited by a 50‐ms hyperpolarization to −140 mV from a holding potential of −60 mV. The dashed line indicates the closed state (zero current), the downward pulses represent channel openings, corresponding to inward K + current. The flickers indicate channel opening and closing. (d) Representative current–voltage (I–V) relationship of whole‐cell voltage‐gated K + currents of Kir4.1 from freshly isolated Müller cells from APOE3 and APOE4 mice with and without 1 mM BaCl 2 treatment. (e) Current densities of Kir4.1 from freshly isolated Müller cells from APOE3 and APOE4 mice collected from +30 mV ( n : APOE3 = 26 cells/9 mice, APOE4 = 33 cells/8 mice). Values are expressed as mean ± SEM. An unpaired t ‐test was used for statistical analysis. ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001, **** p < 0.0001.
