In the developing retina, the microvessels form by differentiation of endothelial precursor cells in a process referred to as vasculogenesis. Experiments using in vivo and in vitro model systems were designed to determine the specific influence of astrocytes on this process. Immunolocalization analyses of retinal vasculogenesis in vivo showed that astrocytes spread within the nerve fiber layer of the neonatal rat retina just ahead of the forming vessels. Then, endothelial precursor cells align themselves in register with the …
