About the Cover

Cover Figure


Cover: Fluorescence labeling (blue) of cell nuclei of the hyaloid vessel network from a 5-day-old mouse. The hyaloid vessels form a cup running parallel to the lens and retina during embryonic development. Postnatal regression of the hyaloid vessels, an adaptation to clear obstructions from the optic axis, requires the coordinated activity of the Wnt and angiopoietin pathways. See research article by Rao et al. on p. 4449.
