This paper identifies polysialic acid (polySia) as a conserved marker for Muller glia across vertebrates and introduces tools to detect it in various species and models.

This study shows that prom1-null Xenopus laevis develop subretinal drusenoid-like deposits and retinal degeneration, indicating RPE dysfunction precedes photoreceptor loss.

IBEX imaging enables simultaneous identification of all cell types in the vertebrate retina across multiple species.
