한국사람태아 내망막층 발생에 관한 미세구조적 연구 = An Ultrastructural Study on the Development of Inner Retinal Layer in Korean Human Fetuses

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The morphogenesis of neuroblasts and plexiform layers, and establishment of its synapses were studied by electron microscopy in human embryos and fetuses ranging from 10 mm to 260 mm crown-rump length ($5\sim30$ weeks of gestational age). At 30 mm fetus the developing retina was composed of outer and inner neuroblastic layers . Cell division of outer neuroblast was occurred until 90 mm fetus. The transient layer of Chievitz was formed by 30 mm fetus, inner plexiform layer by 50 mm fetus, and outer plexiform layer by 150 mm fetus. The cytoplasm of differentiating ganglion cells contained ribosomes, rough endoplasmic reticula, Golgi complexes, microtubules and dense bodies. The processes of $M\ddot{u}ller$ cell penetrated between groups of ganglion cell axons, and formed the cellular component of the inner limiting membrane at 30 mm fetus. At 90 mm fetus radial fibers of M ller cells contained extensive smooth endoplasmic reticula and microtubules. In each specimen , apposing paired membrane specializations were classified as junctions without synaptic vesicles, conventional synapses and ribbon synapses. At 50 mm fetus the processes of neuroblasts in inner plexiform layer were interconnected by junctions without synaptic vesicles. Conventional synapses developed by addition of synaptic vesicles to initially vesicle-free junctions at 90 mm fetus. At 150 mm fetus ribbon synapses were first recognized by the inclusion of a prominent electron-dense material associated with synaptic vesicles. By 260 mm fetus conventional and ribbon synapses and junctions without synaptic vesicles formed similar to those found in the adult.
