Cell Surface Differentiation in the Embryonic Chick Retina

  • Chapter
Ocular Size and Shape Regulation During Development

Part of the book series: Ocular Size and Shape ((EYE))

Abstract

A major problem in the study of morphogenetic movements during organogenesis has been the analysis of the factors which allow different cells within a tissue to assume their final unique positions. Although many theories of morphogenetic movements assume that cell surface alterations are associated with changes in cell position, there have in fact been few studies that have addressed the problem within a single tissue. This problem is particularly pertinent to retina, since there is a requirement for strict organization in the layering of the cells and in their horizontal distribution.
