Proliferation and Expression of Progenitor and Mature Retinal Phenotypes in the Adult Mammalian Ciliary Body after Retinal Ganglion Cell Injury

Abstract

Together, these results suggest that progenitorlike cells of the CB respond to cues associated with the loss of a single retinal cell type and that a subpopulation of those cells may differentiate into a cell that bears phenotypic resemblance to those seen in the retina.
