NEURONS OF GANGLIONIC LAYER OF RETINA IN HUMAN FOETUSES

Abstract

The authors have conducted light-optical and electron microscopical studies of 21 eyes of human foetuses (therapeutic abortions in the first, second and third trimesters of pregnancy) and shown that changes in the form, increase in body size and proliferation of dendrites of neurons of ganglionic layer correlated with intrauterine growth. By the time of birth, M-neurons of retina were mature from the point of view of their morphologic structure.
