Cell death precedes rod neurogenesis in embryonic teleost retinal development

Year: 1998
Type: article
Abstract: We measured cell death in the retinas of embryonic and adult teleost fish using TUNEL staining. Following a wave of cell birth during embryogenesis that generates all retinal cell types except rods, cell death occurs in all three nuclear layers. The lack of a corresponding pattern of cell death in the growing adult margin suggests different roles for death during embryogenesis and adult neurogenesis.
