Abstract excerpt
Müller glia have been shown to be a potential source of neural regeneration in the avian retina. In response to acute damage Müller glia de-differentiate, proliferate, express transcription factors found in embryonic retinal progenitors, and some of the progeny differentiate into neurons and glia (Fischer and Reh [2001a] Nat. Neurosci. 4:247-252). However, most of the cells produced by proliferating Müller cells...
