A quantitative histological study of cell division and changes in cell number in the meningeal sheath of the embryonic human optic nerve.

Mitotic cells are present in all layers of the meninges of the human optic nerve between 8 and 18 weeks post-conception. The number of meningeal cells per section remains constant between 8 and 12 weeks before rising rapidly from 234 at 12 weeks to 747 at 18 weeks. The mitotic index is only 0.17% at...
