Objective To study the progressive development of the retinas through an observation on the histological changes of the retinas from neonatal mice of different day-ages. Methods The retinas from the mice of 1 to 20 days of age were examined by light microscopy,and from 1 to 3 days,by autoradiography. Results The retinas of the mice below 3 days of age only had the RPE cells layer,the neuroblast layer and the ganglion cell layer.With the increase in dayage,the retinas developed gradually and would be mature in the 20th day. Conclusions The retinas of mice is a kind of immature tissue before the 20th days,so it can be considered as transplantation donors. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 1999, 15: 174-176)
