JUN controls BIM expression after axonal injury.

(A) JUN, which is known to control RGC death after CONC, is expressed by one day after injury, prior to BIM expression. By 3 days after CONC, RGCs coexpress JUN and BIM. (B) In contrast to the robust BIM expression (red) seen after CONC in RGCs of Jun+/+ mice, there is no BIM expression in Jun deficient RGCs (Junf/f; Six3-cre). Thus, JUN appears to control BIM expression after axonal injury. Similar results were obtained from at least 3 different mice for each time point and genotype. DAPI, blue; Scale bar, 25 μm.
