Mouse Eye Neural Crest
Neural crest (NC)-derived cells contribute to ocular development.
- a Toluidine blue staining of an adult eye. The boxed areas correspond to b and c
- b A detailed view of the corneal assembly, including outer epithelium, stroma, and inner endothelium
- c The chamber angle at the irido-corneal transition which includes the trabecular meshwork (tm).
- d-j In vivo fate mapping of NC-derived, β-galactosidase (βGal)-expressing cells (blue)
- d The NC origin of corneal keratocytes (arrows) and of corneal endothelium (arrowhead).
- e Structures of the chamber angle, including the trabecular meshwork are seen to be NC-derived.
- f At E10, the optic cup is surrounded by NC-derived cells expressing βGal.
- g-i The majority of the cells in the periocular mesenchyme (arrows), which forms the anterior eye segment, are of NC origin, as assessed from E11.5 to E13.5.
- j The primary vitreous at E13.5 (arrowheads) shows a strong NC contribution.
