Abstract excerpt
Ciliary epithelium (CE), which consists of nonpigmented and pigmented layers, develops from the optic vesicle. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying CE development have not been closely examined, in part because cell-surface markers suitable for specific labeling of subregions of the retina were unknown. Here, we identified CD138/syndecan-1 and stage specific embryonic antigen-1 (SSEA-1) CD15 as...
