MORPHOGENESIS OF THE COLLAGENOUS STROMA IN THE CHICK CORNEA



Robert L. Trelstad 1 and Alfred J. Coulombre 1

1 From the Laboratory of Experimental Embryology, Ophthalmology Branch, National Eye Institute, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland 20014.

Dr. Trelstad's present address is The Developmental Biology Laboratory, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts 02114

The embryonic chick corneal epithelium produces a highly structured acellular matrix beneath its basal surface during early development. This matrix, which contains collagen, serves as a morphogenetic template for subsequent stromal development in that the three-dimensional architecture of the adult corneal stroma is initially established, in miniature, in this epithelially derived connective tissue. Examination of the early corneal epithelium and matrix in both the light and electron microscope suggests that self assembly of the matrix may be one of several important factors in the morphogenesis of this early connective tissue.
