The Ciliary Margin Zone of the Mammalian Retina Generates Retinal Ganglion Cells

The Ciliary Margin Zone of the Mammalian Retina Generates Retinal Ganglion Cells

The retina of lower vertebrates grows continuously by integrating new neurons generated from progenitors in the ciliary margin zone (CMZ). Whether the mammalian CMZ provides the neural retina with retinal cells is controversial. Live imaging of embryonic retina expressing eGFP in the CMZ shows that...
