| Abstract | PURPOSE: Nestin, a marker of neural stem cells, is expressed in Müller cells during retinal development. However, the role of nestin in retinal vascular development is not well established. Thus, we investigated the expression of nestin in developmental mouse retina and identified which retinal cells are related to the expression of nestin during the retinal vascular development. METHODS: Eyes were enucleated from C57BL/6 mice on postnatal day (P) 4, P8, P12, P16 and P26. Immunofluorescence was used to evaluate nestin expression in relation to endothelial cells (isolectin B4), pericytes (neural/glial antigen 2) and astrocytes (glial fibrillary acidic protein). RESULTS: Nestin was strongly expressed from the ganglion cell layer to retinoblast layer at P4. At P8, P12 and P16, the expression of nestin was observed from the upper border of the ganglion cell layer, and vertically penetrating to outer nuclear layer. At P26, the expression of nestin was decreased and confined to the ganglion cell layer and inner nuclear layer. Interestingly, there was strong vascular shape expression of nestin at all stages. The superficial, deep and intermediate vascular plexus was completely merged with nestin expression at P4, P8, P12 and P16. In addition, the nestin expression merged with pericytes but not with astrocytes. CONCLUSIONS: Nestin was expressed in endothelial cells and pericytes during retinal vascular development in the retina. These results suggest that nestin could play an important role in developmental angiogenesis via interplay with endothelial cells and pericytes. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
