Dynamic changes in microglial and macrophage characteristics during degeneration and regeneration of the zebrafish retina

Abstract Background In contrast to mammals, zebrafish have the capacity to regenerate retinal neurons following a variety of injuries. Two types of glial cells, Müller glia (MG) and microglia, are known to exist in the zebrafish retina. Recent work has shown that MG give rise to regenerated retinal...
