Programmed cell death during retinal development of the mouse eye.
Similar to other parts of the central nervous system, there are two types of programmed cell death during retinal development. In early development, the neuronal progenitor population is affected. In the mouse eye, this kind of programmed cell death begins at around embryonic day (E) 12.5 and peaks between E14.5 and E16.5. The second phase of programmed cell death occurs during synaptogenesis w...
متن کاملDrosophila myc Regulates Cellular Growth during Development
Transcription factors of the Myc proto-oncogene family promote cell division, but how they do this is poorly understood. Here we address the functions of Drosophila Myc (dMyc) during development. Using mosaic analysis in the fly wing, we show that loss of dMyc retards cellular growth (accumulation of cell mass) and reduces cell size, whereas dMyc overproduction increases growth rates and cell s...
متن کاملHistochemical study of retinal photoreceptors development during pre- and postnatal period and their association with retinal pigment epithelium
Objective(s):The aim of this study was to evaluate distribution and changes of glycoconjugates of retinal photoreceptors during both pre- and postnatal development. Materials and Methods: Tissue sections from days 15 to 20 of Wistar rat embryos and 1 to 12 postnatal days of rat newborns including developing eye were prepared for lectinhistochemistry technique. Horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-label...
متن کاملContrasting patterns of myc and N-myc expression during gastrulation of the mouse embryo.
myc and N-myc are related genes whose similar protein products may be used for different purposes in vertebrate organisms. We have explored this possibility by using hybridization in situ to examine the expression of myc and N-myc during gastrulation of mouse embryos. Throughout gastrulation, myc RNA was most abundant in extraembryonic cells; by contrast, N-myc RNA was found at highest levels i...
متن کاملGrowth and size control during development
The size and shape of organs are characteristic for each species. Even when organisms develop to different sizes due to varying environmental conditions, such as nutrition, organ size follows species-specific rules of proportionality to the rest of the body, a phenomenon referred to as allometry. Therefore, for a given environment, organs stop growth at a predictable size set by the species's g...
