Abstract excerpt
The production of cell types in the vertebrate retina follows a stereotyped time course. We have focused on a component of the extracellular matrix that may guide this schedule: the laminin beta 2 chain. Here, we have asked directly whether heterotrimeric laminins containing the laminin beta 2 chain can promote the production of presumptive rod photoreceptors ("rods") and have correlated changes in rod production...
