Abstract excerpt
To test the hypothesis that local environmental cues regulate the expression of middle wavelength-sensitive (MWS) and short wavelength-sensitive (SWS) opsins in cone photoreceptors, we examined the development of the neonatal mouse retina in an organotypic culture system. The segregation of MWS and SWS cones into dorsal and ventral fields in the mouse retina offers an opportunity to isolate a phenotypically...
