Ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) exerts a multiplicity of effects on a broad spectrum of target cells, including retinal neurons. To investigate how this functional complexity relates to the regulation of CNTF receptor โฃ (CNTFRโฃ) expression, we have studied the developmental expression of the rece

The vertebrate retina is derived from paired evaginations from the neural tube in embryonic development and is initially produced by progenitor cells similar to those that generate the neurons and glia of other areas of the central nervous system. In some amphibians and fish, the retina continues to
The authors analyzed the pattern of neurogenesis, the time frame of cell movement, and the cell cycle kinetics of a population of stem cells located in the outer nuclear layer in the retina of the adult teleost Haplochromis burtoni. These stem cells continue to give rise to new rod photoreceptors th
Extracellular levels of endogenous glutamate are relatively high in the developing rabbit retina but nonetheless appear to promote cell survival and developmental processes at concentrations considered toxic in the adult. We wished to examine the development of retinal susceptibility to glutamate to
The goal of this study was to investigate whether all the cell types present in the chick embryo retina undergo developmental neuronal death. Apoptosis was investigated in retinal sections at different developmental stages, processed either with propidium iodide, which stains pyknotic nuclei intense
